GARDAÍ IN CAVAN have begun an investigation after the theft of an ATM from the wall of a bank on Main Street, Kingscourt.
The alarm was raised at 4am and officers attended the scene.
Upon arrival, they discovered a large digger had been used to remove the ATM from the bank.
It was placed on a trailer being towed by a light-coloured four-wheel drive vehicle (SUV).
This vehicle left the scene in the direction of Carrickmacross.
The scene has been sealed off to facilitate a technical examination by garda crime scene examiners.
Gardaí have asked anyone with information in relation to the incident to contact them at Bailieboro Garda Station on 042 969 4570.

Been getting my hair cut in Pip Connolly’s since the late 70′s – he won’t take new customers now, only his regulars, but he’s still going strong.
Great to see Eric’s shots – the story of Ireland, along with the likes of Matt Kavanagh and Peter Thursfield.
Careful Eamon, some lefty types might accuse you of being a racist.
Well lefties and also people who aren’t racists.
Why? Because multiculturalism is a load of tripe? All races are equally OK, all cultures are not.
@Greg Blake:
Imported medievalism dressed up in progressive authoritarianism and liberal bigotry.
Great photos, Eric. Very evocative. You were always a great photographer, and a gentleman to work with back in the IP days.
You’d hardly know the place now.
That’s a good thing though,the empty churches are a sign of progress and better education.
@Tariq ibn Ziyad: Odd, my church is not empty
That may be the case Easter,but it’s unusual to only have one pew in a church.
Multi cult hell hole.….. Catch a grip of yourself.
Great images
