ATM Blast Heerlen

Unknown criminals have attempted to blast an ATM on Tuesday morning 4.00 am at the Bautscherweg in Heerlen (Limburg). The police reported that the robbery was not successful and that the ATM was still intact. After the unsuccessful blast robbery, the robbers hurried away without any money. There is nothing known about the identity of the robbers. During the attempted blast a gas escaped, but this led not to any damage and also nobody got hurt. ATM blasts occur regularly. Last Friday an ATM of ING was blasted in Castricum and one week before that robbery a machine of ABN AMRO was blasted in Vinkeveen.
