ATM blown up in Graz bank: perpetrators on the run!
The series of ATM blasts continued in Graz on Thursday night. The alarm was triggered in the Eggenberg district at around 3 a.m. and the perpetrators are still on the run.
At around 3 a.m., the perpetrators struck and blew up an ATM in a bank branch in the north-west of Graz: "We received the alarm automatically", says Sabri Yorgun from the Styrian Provincial Police Directorate.
Traces secured
Since then, a major manhunt has been underway and evidence is being secured to provide possible clues to the perpetrators. No one was injured, but the damage to property was considerable, the officer told "Krone".
14th blast since the beginning of the year
The incident in the Styrian capital is now the 14th this year. At the beginning of March, the police said that "five to six different groups" were apparently behind the numerous ATM blasts in several federal states in recent weeks.
Banks have responded to the threat. However, the officials do not want to give details about increased security measures.
