Residents in the Van Woustraat in Amsterdam were jolted out of their beds by an explosion in a restaurant.
The devastating blast plunged the Diya Indian Restaurant into ruin. At around 2:45 am, the neighborhood was woken by a loud bang. All the windows in the restaurant shattered, but nobody was injured, and there was no fire.
How the explosion exactly happened, nobody knows yet. According to witnesses, a projectile was thrown into the building.
The police has executed an investigation in the restaurant last night.
