Building collapses after attempted ATM theft

An ATM bombing in Reusel, Noord-Brabant caused quite a bit of devastation during the early hours of Friday morning. The facade of the affected building on Kerkstraat collapsed in the explosion. On Twitter the police report that the bombing happened around 4:00 a.m. No one was wounded. A spokesperson for the police told news wire ANP that there are concerns about the stability of the rest of the building. The perpetrators fled. At this stage it is unclear whether they got away with any money.
