Overview

• Unknown perpetrators detonated an ATM overnight in a self-service branch inside an unoccupied commercial complex in Risum-Lindholm, sparking a fire.
• The blaze spread through the property housing a beverage store, a bakery and a butcher shop, causing significant damage but no injuries.
• Police launched a large search supported by a Bundespolizei helicopter, though the initial hunt did not locate suspects.
• The site remains sealed off as forensic teams secure traces, and authorities are asking witnesses to report observations from the time of the attack.
• The Landeskriminalamt is leading the case, which aligns with a nationwide pattern of ATM bombings under investigation since late 2024.
