Police: Man Dies After Attempting To Break Into North Philadelphia ATM With Explosives, Approximately 30 ATMs Damaged Overnight
CBS 3 Philly ^ | 2 June 2020 | CBS Staff

Posted on 06/03/2020 7:39:31 AM PDT by DUMBGRUNT

HAPPENING NOW: Police are responding to what appears to be an ATM explosion, in Brewerytown. I heard a loud bang, and the flames shortly followed

Police say a 24-year-old man tried using an explosive device to blow up the ATM by Sidekicks Sports Bar, but when the device went off, he was thrown to the ground with serious injuries. He was rushed to a nearby hospital and died.

Police say the explosive device never penetrated the ATM’s safe. Live explosives were recovered at the scene.

Councilman Kenyatta Johnson surveyed the damage left behind after two ATMs were dismantled.

It’s nice to see some heart warming stories come out of this rioting and looting by the ghetto trash.

He needed to give a payoff to the Democrat officials protecting this activity. They only take cash.

Lesson learned...If you use a shaped charge, remember to have it point the right way. Your face is not made of steel.

Gotta pity this poor protester, driven to do what he did because of his grief for George Floyd. /sar

Cause of death: Covid /sar²

Will Biden attend his funeral?

Will Philly have a massive candlelight memorial for this gentle giant, who was always a loving son to his mother?

Suspect(hoping) that the line is bifurcated a few times.

I wish we had people working as hard as the left on putting together videos of violence by the rioters.

I’d love to have a 10-minute video to post showing clip after clip of “peaceful protesters” beating up people, lighting fires, etc.

I also think we should have a running list of every single police officer killed during the riots.

Also, a list of every single protester killed by either other protesters, or their own actions like this one.

I have not been able to find a good database for any of this, while it is easy to find videos of random police being bad.
