Nettetal (dpa / lnw) – When an ATM was blown up in Nettetal am Niederhein on Friday, a building was damaged by the detonation. Witnesses saw at least two people flee, the police reported in Viersen. The fire department evacuated the house.
After a statistician inspected the damage, the residents were allowed back into the building. Shortly after the explosion, an accident occurred on a road not far from the scene of the crime in the middle of the night.
Police found an unmarked motorcycle and a seriously injured man who was taken to a hospital. It was initially unclear whether the man was one of the perpetrators or whether he had to avoid the fleeing tank crackers and injured himself. It is also unclear whether the gangsters made booty or whether it was just an attempt.
