Police now tell us a 24-year-old man is dead after trying to blow up an ATM in the city.
SkyFOX was over the scene at North Second Street and West Susquehanna Avenue on Tuesday morning. This happened around 6 a.m. outside Sidekicks Sports Bar.
There, investigators were looking over the automated teller machine with a smashed screen, a mangled keyboard, dangling components but a seemingly intact safe at the bottom.
FOX 29's Lauren Johnson reported that, according to police, the man was using explosives. He was seriously injured at the scene and was later pronounced dead at a hospital.
Sources tell FOX 29's Dave Schratwieser the man was shot after he set off the explosion and tried to make off with the cash.
Police are investigating at this location, and this does not appear to be the lone incident.

Stupid games and happy endings?
It’s nice to end the day with some good news !
Heart warming story.

Yikes how a random ATM randomly exploded on this clown. Yes I will mourn this aspiring whatever. Even if he/she is Antifa of indeterminate sex.
Yup
I’m leaving the internet for tonight after finally seeing some good news
Work place accident? Was he a Palistinian student?
I knew 3 men who served in WWII. 2 Army Infantry and one tincan sailor. They all said “ you find sympathy between shit and syphilis in the dictionary”. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of sympathy flowing around here either.
He didn’t win the smart prize he was hopping to win. Smart prizes are for smart games.
His mind was blown by a get-rich-quick-scheme.
He is gonna get a lot more than a “Participation” award.
Money Machine Lives Matter
The last time I saw someone killed by an ATM, I was watching Breaking Bad.
He had blew eyes.
Watch, I’m going to show you how to blow up this ATM once!
Another Philadelphia “protestor” met his demise trying to loot a firing range when the owner was still there. Don’t you love these stories with a happy ending?
