Office closed due to car bomb
Apr. 10th, 2014 12:09 pmYeah, today isn't going quite according to plan.
As the Greek government tries different methods to get out of the current economic crisis (which is still ongoing, even if forgotten), someone decided to voice their displeasure ... well, in so far as explosives can be considered speech. A car bomb went off near an office of the Bank of Greece at about six o'clock this morning, and police cordoned off the immediate vicinity while forensic teams got to work. At last report, nobody was injured (there was a warning call about 45 minutes ahead of time, apparently).
This would be mostly cause for face-palming on my part, were it not for the fact that the bomb went off on the same city block where my office is located, and thus, the office got caught within the police cordon. The office is closed until further notice.
Cradle of civilization, huh?
