I see #PhillyExplosions trending and some people are thinking the Philly media is not covering it on purpose.

Let me tell you about the media: We want to be the first ones to accurately report on something. Trust me, I'm sure they are looking into it. 1/2

Philadelphia police said thieves targeted ATMs across the city overnight. In several instances, officials said the thieves typically rushed into a mini-mart or corner store, set off an explosive device and then made off with the cash from the machine. https://t.co/luL1REc1TY
