ATM machine attacked with fire

I just saw this. There were several cops and fire engines near a burned ATM on my university campus. Was someone thinking they could burn their way into an ATM? The machine was still working correctly after the fire was put out. Update: This happened at 5:35 AM according to the KCRA news team I spoke to in person. The burned ATM belonged to Bank of America. The Golden One ATM was also attacked, but with much less damage. It seems someone threw a bottle with gasoline or something at the machines. I’m wondering if the cameras on these operate continuously or just during a transaction.
