Alarm in Gütersloh: ATM blasted - perpetrator on the run!

Königstraße, Gütersloh, Deutschland - Gütersloh shaken by ATM blast!

In the dark night on Friday, November 15th, 2024, a spectacular incident occurred in Gütersloh! Unknown perpetrators exploded an ATM in the heart of the city on Königstrasse. At 02:54 a.m., a deafening bang sounded, which not only damaged the machine, but also the adjacent residential and commercial building. The perpetrators, a group of several people, quickly disappeared under the protection of the night and fled in a dark VW Golf.

The police were immediately on site and even used firearms against the fleeing vehicle! But the gangsters were nimble: they managed to reach Autobahn 2 towards Dortmund. However, the further escape route remains in the dark. The investigation of the criminal commissioner 21 in Bielefeld is in full swing, but so far there is no trace of the perpetrators or the vehicle.

Since it cannot be ruled out that the criminals keep hidden in a remote forest area or even in a barn, the police ask for information from the population. Anyone who has observed something in the early morning should report to the criminal commissioner 21 under 0521-545-0. Photos or videos from the crime can be uploaded in the NRW police police. The exciting hunt for the criminals continues!
