Newfoundland police are investigating the failed theft of an ATM using heavy machinery following a number similar crimes that struck businesses earlier this year.
Royal Newfoundland Constabulary Const. James Cadigan said officers observed an “unsuccessful attempt” to steal an ATM from a Credit Union in Mount Pearl, N.L. on Monday morning.

The mysterious crime scene comes months after police reported two attempted thefts using front-end loaders over a single weekend in January.
