They did not get away with the Atm machine. It was to heavy for them to lift into the van they had stolen. They caught one suspect but, let him go because he couldn't be identified.
@Sae462:
That sounds a lot like the police elsewhere.
A few years ago, I had a cargo trailer stolen at a hotel in Tulsa, OK. The police told me they knew where the trailer was but they wanted to wait until the thieves moved it before they captured them.
Never heard from them for over a year. Then, one day I get a letter in the mail. The police were asking me if I had the title for the trailer and if I would send it to them so they could sell my trailer.
I called them and their response was that obviously I must have had it insured, so they considered it only proper that I donate it to them.
I never got the trailer back. They never got the title. I figure they found a way to either use it or retitle and sell it. 4951
