An unknown group of perpetrators blew up an ATM in Anzing (Ebersberg district) and fled.
The police are looking for witnesses.
Update 9.25 a.m .:
As the LKA reports to the
German Press Agency
, the automatic sprinkler case in Anzing is the 33rd case this year in Bavaria.
In Bavaria, the number of ATM demolitions has skyrocketed this year.
In 2021 there were 17 in the whole year, in 2020 there were 24. Bavaria's Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann (CSU) therefore wants to increase the pressure on the international criminal groups.
In addition, according to the will of the conference of interior ministers, the operators of ATMs should in future be obliged to protect their cash holdings from being blown up.

Enormous property damage, buildings damaged, cash stolen
Update 9.10 a.m .:
As the LKA reports when asked, the officials assume property damage of around 150,000 euros.
A neighboring shop was also affected by the blast.
In addition, the perpetrators stole cash – the officials do not provide any information on the amount.
No one was injured, and a local resident saw the perpetrators flee.
First report, Tuesday, November 29, 9 a.m.:
Anzing
- A bang shook the town center early in the morning: in the middle of Anzing, unknown perpetrators blew up an ATM on the night of Tuesday, November 29th.
As reported by the Bavarian State Criminal Police Office on its Facebook page, the explosion happened around 3 a.m. in Mühldorfer Strasse 2. There is a self-service branch of the Sparkasse, where customers can only take advantage of vending machine services.
The perpetrators then fled in a dark car, presumably in the direction of the nearby A94 motorway, the officials said.

The Bavarian State Criminal Police Office (BLKA) has therefore taken over the investigation.
More detailed investigations of the explosives are to take place in the coming days at the BLKA's Forensic Institute in Munich.
Initially, the police did not provide any information about the amount of property damage and any cash that might have been stolen.
It is also still unclear whether there are already witnesses to the incident or whether traces or video material have been seized.
This article will be updated as additional circumstances become known.
