A stolen U-haul and stolen skylift used to steal a banks ATM

Impressive robbery.

Son of a bitch. Dude definitely had experience with a lift.

(no message)

Only one drop per week so it had to last. This was at a very busy bank in Baton Rouge. If you ever try to get money out of an atm and it is down for maintenance, that is why.

I was in the Drive Thru the other day and a teller walked out and opened the ATM, she loaded the SOB full.

Seems to be that would have been the way to rob a bank/ATM. Just case the joint until you get the schedule down and wait until she goes to stock it.

I had no idea they had $250k in them.

This was at a branch out of town too so you could rob it and be gone in no time.

It doesn't necessarily have 250k in it. I've worked at credit unions where the max an ATM had was maybe 100k.

I agree. My location was very busy for withdrawals and check cashing. Not your typical loan office or financial advisor spot. Cash was a premium so we stocked more than most. So locations can take two drops a week so they can hold less at a time.

You would think an ATM would have some Fail safe, like a 'large force' would trigger a mechanism that released dye packs onto the money or something along those lines.

Ironic that I just finished watching the movie Hell or High Water (about 2 bank robbers), and have been looking up things to do in Texarkana next week while my dog has surgery there... And now I see this threat right after
