Police in Omagh are continuing to appeal for information after plant machinery was used in an attempt to remove an ATM from a shop on the Old Mountfield Road in the early hours of yesterday morning.
Detective Sergeant Robinson says; thieves used a piece of plant machinery in a bid to remove the ‘built-in’ cash machine from the shop at around 4am.
Police believe the piece of machinery was stolen from a building site a short distance away, and was set on fire immediately after the incident.
They are particularly keen to trace the movements of a dark-coloured Volkswagen Passat which headed in the direction of Cookstown.
Anyone who has any information relating to the car or the incident is asked to contact detectives in Omagh.
