Thieves Attempt ATM Theft With Explosive Device
Police have launched an investigation after thieves attempted to steal an ATM machine at a filling station on Annareagh Road, Hamiltonsbawn, County Armagh.
Detectives in Newry are appealing for information following the incident, which began when police received a report of a loud bang in the area and suspicious activity close to the ATM, at about 02:30 in the early hours of Thursday morning.
The device was made safe and removed for further examination. It is believed the culprits left the area in a vehicle, driving in the direction of Markethill. A black Audi car was found abandoned on the Gosford Road a short time later.

They are particularly keen to hear from anyone who noticed a Volkswagen Passat or black Audi car, travelling between Hamiltonsbawn and Newry, prior to and after this incident.
