Second ram-raid on cash machine | |
(30 minutes later) | |
A bulldozer has been used in an attempted ram-raid on a cash machine in County Tyrone for the second time in a fortnight. | |
It was driven into a Spar shop beside Kelly's Inn in Garvaghey, outside Ballygawley, at about 0230 BST on Wednesday. | |
A PSNI spokeswoman said neither the cash machine nor any money was taken. | |
Last week a digger was used to demolish a wall in nearby Carrickmore in an attempt to steal an ATM machine. | |
It emerged that a cash machine which police thought had been stolen in this incident was actually buried under the rubble left by those responsible. | It emerged that a cash machine which police thought had been stolen in this incident was actually buried under the rubble left by those responsible. |
The owners of the Spar shop said they were "disappointed" at the attack. | |
In a statement, they said it caused a lot of disruption to the business which "has obviously had a knock on effect on the local community". | |
"As a family-run business, we are keen to work with local police to get the situation sorted out," they said. |
