They tried to uproot the ATM from the wall , perhaps to insert a bomb in the back, but something went wrong and they had to give up.
This is what happened last night, after 4am, in Mamoiada , where unknown individuals once again attempted to attack the post office's automatic teller machine, but were unsuccessful.
This is the third incident in a relatively short period of time, which has put an essential community service out of action.
During the previous attack, the criminals had already caused extensive damage to the building : the Postamat had been out of order for around a year, causing serious inconvenience to the residents, especially the elderly.
The Carabinieri were on site, busy reconstructing what happened and identifying those responsible.
