RCMP responded to the break-in at Parkland Mall at 4:15 a.m. Surveillance video showed a white Ford truck smashed through the mall doors at Entrance 5, located at the north end of the mall.
Police said the pickup then drove through the mall to two separate ATMs in the food court area, where three men got out of the truck and were seen lifting the cash machines into the back.
