The site reports that criminals pump the cash dispensers with propane, which they then ignite—in the process tearing the machines apart with brute force. The explosions can send debris up to 50 meters from the ATM.

I don't think it was a dry run for an ATM job, but I am still not convinced that a naga and a naked flame were not involved.....

They do it the easy way around here, just pick up the ATM and drive off, they did use a JCB though and demolished half a Shell Petrol Station in the process. earlier this year.  ::)

That Chinese family in Southampton did a proper job. I only wrecked the garage and part of the house.

they blew one about five miles down from us, made more mess than the job was worth I understand. don't think tb was involved though, because he's still on here, I believe those invold are staying relatively free at one of the governments establishments.

not sure if I would say luxury at up to three/four in something sized slightly larger than a good sized garden shed/ greenhouse, even with running water and central heating ! methinks Colchester's correctional facility might be more relevant !!
