Delft – In the early morning of Monday, September 4, an explosion took place at a bakery on Papsouwselaan. At the building next door, a supermarket, a piece of explosive was also found that had not exploded. Police are investigating the case and are appealing for witnesses to come forward. Several people were working in the bakery at the time of the explosion.
Around 02:50 a piece of explosive was probably thrown in the direction of the front of the store, after which it exploded. Miraculously, no one was injured. There was significant damage to the building, however.
When the emergency services arrived, a piece of unexploded, presumably explosive, was found at the adjacent supermarket. This was probably placed just before the explosion at the front door of the bakery. The material was examined by the Explosives Reconnaissance Team (TEV) of the police. The Defense Explosive Ordnance Disposal Service (EOD) will render this material harmless.
One or more suspects are believed to be involved in the incident. The detective has launched an investigation.
