Gunman Ram Van into Greek Microsoft HQ

Jun 27, 2012·Dustin

Estimated Reading Time: 1 min

Gunman loaded a van with full canisters of gasoline and rammed the Greek Microsoft headquarters. No one has claimed responsibility as of yet, but rumors are saying it is about the recession and economic woes in the area. No one was hurt, but there was ~ $75,000 USD of damage. No reports of injuries.

Arson attacks against banks, foreign firms and local politicians have become more frequent in Greece in recent years as the country battles soaring unemployment and struggles through a recession deepened by austerity policies imposed by foreign lenders.
