Suspects still at large ATM theft
GUIN — Police responded to the scene of an ATM burglary and theft of money at State Bank and Trust in Guin in the early morning hours of Friday, Dec. 6.
“About 5:20 this morning, a white truck pulled up to the ATM,” Guin Police Chief Daryl Spencer said. “They used tools to manipulate the ATM door, then once they got the door opened, they backed the truck up and used tow hooks with a chain to jerk the vault door open using the truck. They took the money out of the ATM, and there was a getaway car that was waiting on them nearby. They left the truck at the scene.”
