"Why would anyone do something like this?"
"Desperate."
I just spoke with the business owner next door, who says someone tried to steal the ATM at the Exxon before!
Those details, plus what I just learned from police, at 12pm.@wsbtv #CollegePark pic.twitter.com/s6jTAZnCNW
A passer-by called police, but the men were gone when officers arrived.
Police found the van and took it to their tow yard.
They are now looking at surveillance video from the store. The owner, who did not want to be identified, told Channel 2 this was not the first time someone tried to steal the ATM.
