I guess I did not realize the 34 Ford V8 that Bonnie and Clyde owned (borrowed) had enough power to rip that there well armed ATM out of the ground – sounds like some of obama’s fake news – Look around for a large farm tractor dragging a log chain – just some good old boys meaning no harm.
Let’s hope they “ARE” trying to open it so they can be found.
INITAL REPORT COMES FROM LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THEY CONTACT THE FBI. ALL ATMS HAVE A GPS IN THEM SO HOPE THE THIEFS ARNT SITTING HOME IN THEIR LIVING ROOM TRYING TO OPEN IT.
Usually the FBI is in charge of all bank theft investigations because they are insured by the FDIC. Why the Sheriff’s office?
