ATM stolen in daylight robbery

23aug02

A THIEF has used a forklift to steal an automatic teller machine from Prahran Market.
The thief told several people he was taking the ATM for servicing before wrapping it in black plastic, loading it on a yellow forklift and driving away.
Police have appealed for witnesses to the theft, including drivers on Commercial Rd.

The man stole the machine at 5.30pm on Monday. Police don't yet know whether a second man dressed in a security uniform was involved.

Detectives want to speak to a clean-shaven man 166cm tall, aged 40 to 50, of medium build with short, grey hair.

I think this is sad. This is common all over now! It really hurts retail businesses b/c now some stores do not want to carry ATM b/c of all the crap.
