Truck Drives Through Sobeys in Attempt to Steal ATM

Attempted ATM Theft at Cold Lake Sobeys

On July 13, 2017, at approximately 11:15 p.m. Cold Lake RCMP were dispatched to a break and enter at the Cold Lake Sobeys grocery store.  A red or burgundy Ford F-250 truck backed through the glass doors to the store and attempted to pull out the ATM machine with a tow rope.  The suspect truck had no front bumper and had a black tailgate.  Once the two suspects realized that the ATM was empty they fled the scene with the door to the store still attached to the truck and without the ATM.  The door eventually came dislodged and landed in the yard of a nearby residence.
