A pair of men manage to escape police interception after they were caught red-handed trying to tear away a Bank of America ATM with their pickup truck in Massachusetts, police said.
On Friday at 3:43, the Higham Police Department were notified by the Bank of America alarm system that there were intruders on the property.
The two men had fastened a chain onto the drive-up ATM and were attempting to tear it away, police said.
When police arrived, the men quickly vacated the premises and jumped into their white 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT.
Officers quickly attempted to pursue the pickup truck, but the suspects managed to evade arrest after ditching the vehicle on someone’s home’s patio, between a grill, deck chairs and a picnic table.
