Suspects sought after ATM explosion at Chestnut Hill shopping center

The ATM bombers went on a rampage last year starting in June. Dozens of ATM bombings rocked the Philadelphia area and Delaware. This is the second time a Chestnut Hill bank ATM has been hit. They haven't struck since December.

CHESTNUT HILL - An ATM explosion at the Wells Fargo branch in Chestnut Hill caused no injuries, but police are on the hunt for suspects.

Officials say the explosion of the ATM occurred Tuesday, just after 5:30 a.m., on the 7700 block of Crittenden Street, at what is normally a busy shopping center. Sources say a powerful M-style device tore apart the ATM and they got away with a lot of cash.

"These things are potentially lethal. If they don't kill you, they're gonna alter your life forever," counterterrorism expert Joseph Sullivan said.
