ᴴᴰ SOKO Vienna Season 5 Episode 15 - Life and Death Major Carl Ribarski meets alone with the well-known investigative journalist Michael Kaminski, who is on the trail of a particularly sensitive scandal incognito. He has barely been able to pass on his juicy information to Ribarski at the container port when he is fatally shot. While he is dying in Carl's arms, Carl is also hit. Ribarski is taken to hospital with serious injuries. Deeply affected, Carl's colleagues investigate the crime scene. The investigators find out that the murdered man has a false identity. The only useful clue is a membership card for a fitness club. Helmuth Nowak and his colleague Penny Lanz immediately take a look around. The owner of the club, Oliver Solka, and his son Sven have observed a heated argument between the victim and an unknown person. Meanwhile, Colonel Dirnberger is keeping watch over Carl in the hospital. He is stable after the emergency operation, but it is not certain whether he will survive. (Alternative title: SOKO Donau) The Soko Wien is the special unit of the Vienna water police and has its base at the Handelskai in Vienna, in the shadow of the Reichsbrücke, including an interrogation room and forensic laboratory. Up and down the river they monitor the Danube and its tributaries in the area of Vienna, Lower and Upper Austria, as well as in the eastern countries near the border with their fast boats. The 'Kieberer', as the criminal police are called in Austria, chase the criminals as far as Bratislava if necessary. The 'Ösis' and the 'Piefkes' work together successfully.
