I(KG).LG1 loss , Nov.12 1940 , Normandy

Hello ,
That day Ju88 A-1 (885134) , pilot Fw. G. Grauheding crashed south Fecamp , all 4 crew members killed. Did they take part in a bombing mission over England , and what was the cause of the crash ?
Thank you ,

GenQu record does not give much additional information. The NVM would probably contain a bit more:

This ac took off between 1400-1444 hrs to carry out a nuisance attack on London and crashed on the outbound flight; no reason was given so would guess weather/technical failure
