Digger used to steal ATM in Enniscorthy

Gardaí in Co Wexford are investigating the theft of an ATM in Enniscorthy in the early hours of this morning.

The bank machine at the Mace Maxol Petrol Station on Bellefield Road was pulled from the wall by a digger which was being used for renovation work at the station in the last few days.

The raiders are believed to have escaped with a substantial amount of cash as the machine was refilled yesterday.

The robbery was almost identical to two ATM thefts in Co Kildare and Co Kilkenny last month.

They did it twice in Meath. I think it was last month or maybe May. No need for card skimmimg tactics there!

Ah sure they've been at that craic for ages.

At least they didn't call it an ATM Machine.

That really annoys me.

Draupnir

Eh, this has been happening for years and is far, far from a recent tactic.

Or when someone says pin number!

Thats been going on around the country for years. I actually met a JCB on the road travelling to rob an atm one night a few years ago in Galway. They nicked it out of a building site and straight to the bank. Not the most subtle form of bank robbery I must say!

Next they'll be robbing banks at this rate.

Yekno,

Stealing a bank and running off with it.

What annoys me is pedantic people pointing out irrelevant mistakes.

Especially when nobody's even made the mistake.

This used to happen a lot up north during the early 90s.

I rmember story (may be an urban legend) where an ATM was stolen using a digger. The police noticed some of the usual suspects had gone to ground and kept a lookout for them. They got a tip-off that they were holed up in a farm so went to get them. When they arrived the found 4 men dyed red, counting lots of cash dyed red, in a farm house that had been dyed red.

Or you know what's even more annoying than that? People irrelevantly pointing out things that annoy them about somebody pointing out something that annoyed them that had got something to do with the article being discussed even though nobody had made the mistake but they didn't claim anyone had made the mistake and were merely pointing it out as a humourous aside and then that person getting thanks for making the irrelevant point and thus making it relevant so the original pedant's point about how irrelevant it was to point that out is now redundant.

It just gets my goat so it does.

dunno why they don't put a device in the ATM that instantly soaks the cash in indellable ink when the machine is impacted, or tipped over a certain angle, end of problem :rolleyes:

see in this thread http://ww.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055630850
somebody called rte.ie for calling the digger a jcb when it was obviously a daewoo,
so the question is which is better for stealing atms a jcb or a daewoo

mickydoomsux

They stole it with a digger?

Are we sure that's not a spelling mistake or someone with a cold reporting it?
