Austrian interior minister Karl Nehammer said he believed the incident was an "apparent terror attack".
A number of suspects armed with rifles launched the assault in six locations, police said. Among the injured was a police officer.
One attacker was shot dead by officers during a large-scale security incident.

Do we know it was Islamic terrorists? We are talking about an attack on a synagogue in Austria after all.

At least two people have been stabbed to death in the Canadian city of Quebec by a man armed with a sword and dressed in medieval clothing, police say.
Five others were wounded in the Halloween night attack.
