Stolen Truck Used in ATM Heist Found Abandoned

Police have recovered a stolen vehicle used in the early morning destruction and robbery of an ATM.

The Paducah Police Department says a witness contacted them at around 3 a.m. Wednesday and reported he saw two men wrap a chain around an ATM at BB&T Bank at 5195 Hinckleville Road and pull it with a pickup truck. When officers arrived, they found the damaged ATM with money missing. 

The 1999 Ford pickup was reported stolen from a home on Wellsley Way in McCracken County. It was found abandoned Wednesday afternoon in the parking lot of an apartment complex off Olivet Church Road.

Police still are searching for the two men believed to be responsible for the theft. 

Anyone with information about the truck, or who recognizes the men or their clothing, is asked to call the Paducah Police Department at 270-444-8550.
