Kassel police investigate nighttime robbery of mystery‑pack vending machine

Unknown perpetrators broke into a mystery‑pack vending machine on a supermarket parking lot in Kassel around 02:00 on Sunday, forcing open two compartments. They stole a package and the machine’s surveillance camera, and damaged a nearby snack machine. Police estimate the damage at at least €6,000 and are reviewing video footage while appealing for witnesses to contact the Nordhessen police office.

The incident follows a series of recent break‑ins at German schools, but authorities treat it as a separate case linked to the Kassel location.
