Backhoe Bandits take ATM from Pasadena pharmacy

Backhoe bandits have struck again, this time targeting a Pasadena pharmacy.

The machine was used to retrieve an ATM from the Medicine Shoppe on Main Street late on Monday night.

The culprits left a trail of destruction in their wake, with the excavator seen bouncing away from the scene.

Deer Lake and Corner Brook officers responded and found the machine abandoned near the Pasadena Industrial Park where it had been stolen.

Police say the ATM was found, adding that the thieves never put the money inside.

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call the RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
