The more likely response will be nothing at all.

First details are emerging about the attacker who was shot dead by police. He was 20 years old and had north Macedonian roots, according to the interior minister, Karl Nehammer. He was a citizen of both Macedonia and Austria and had a criminal record related to terrorist activity.
Nehammer said the man had been armed with an automatic rifle, a handgun, and a machete. He was also wearing a fake explosives belt.
The minister added that 15 house raids had taken place across Vienna and St Pölten, about an hour from the Austrian capital. Several people had been arrested.
