[01] Bank torched in Neo Psychico, extensive damage
Extensive damage was caused to a Piraeus Bank branch in Neo Psychico in
the early hours of Wednesday when unidentified persons broke a bank
window and threw a home-made incendiary devicse into the facility.
The molotov cocktail (fire-bomb) and a home-made device comprising
small propane canisters exploded and caused a fire that quickly spread
throughout the entire branch. The fire was extinguished shortly
afterwards by a team of 12 firemen with 4 fire engines that rushed to
the scene.
The perpetrators, who immediately fled the scene, were being sought by
police.
