Masked Robbers Try To Steal Varsity ATM

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA — Gwinnett County Police Department detectives are seeking the public’s help identifying four burglars who tried to steal an ATM at the Norcross Varsity in a smash and grab heist. Officers responded to a burglary at the Varsity restaurant located at 6045 Dawson Blvd., unincorporated Norcross, May 23, at about 3 a.m. The suspects had fled by the time officers arrived.

After spending a few minutes trying to open or remove the ATM, the suspects abandoned their efforts and fled the store. The security video is high quality, however the suspects wore full masks.
