Three-pointed nails and a large boulder on the way to escape. The explosive, inserted with the marmot technique, into the ATM. Thus a group of at least four people carried out a nighttime robbery at the Monte Paschi di Siena bank in Bitonto (Ba).
According to what has been reconstructed so far, the bandits, with distorted faces and dressed in mechanic’s overalls, stopped a metallic gray sedan in the center of Corso Vittorio Emanuele, near Palazzo di Città, and blew up the bank’s ATM . While the banknotes were taken to the car, transported in some plastic bags, an accomplice held a pickaxe to ward off the night watchmen who were approaching the place. Having scored the coup, they took off at very high speed, leaving three-pointed nails on the road to help them escape.
There was countless damage to the credit institution, which was completely gutted by the explosion. The Carabinieri intervened on site and are acquiring video surveillance images of the area to try to give a face to the criminals, who had a strong Bari accent. The loot is being quantified. A video was also released on social media which shows exactly what happened.
