Re: Dumbass Alert: Thieves Use Bulldozer to Steal ATM, Lose ATM
This happened a few years back in a small one-stoplight town a few miles from me. Two guys stole a truck, then stole a backhoe and used the backhoe to steal and load an ATM into the bed of the truck. They almost got away with the whole thing until the owner of the truck spotted the truck sitting at one of the thieves' houses (which was only a few miles out of town) and notified police. The police went and confiscated the truck and took the man into custody, and then noticed the damage to the bed of the truck from loading the atm, and burn marks on it from cutting into the atm with a torch. That's when they put 2 & 2 together and connected the man with the ATM robbery and backhoe theft, at which point he also squealed on his buddy who helped out with the whole deal. Had the guy not parked the stolen truck at his house, he might have gotten away with the whole thing (at least for a while longer, anyway).Still plays with trucks....
