WAUKESHA, WI — Waukesha police are asking for the public's help after a group of thieves ripped an entire ATM machine out of the Citgo gas station near White Rock Avenue and Moreland Blvd.
According to police, the suspects pulled up their vehicle to the gas station over night earlier in April, shattering the front door and using a chain in an attempt to pull the ATM from the gas station's interior.
According to a WISN report today, the suspects then attempt to flee the scene after eventually getting the ATM in the back of the trunk, but the ATM falls out of the back of the car. One of the guys gets it back in and off they go.
