Philadelphia Police are looking to arrest three males they say broke into the 7-days Mini Market on North 29th Street. They did not steal cigarettes or food. Instead they took an entire ATM machine. It was about 5:00 AM when they backed a U-haul truck to the front door of the business.
They tied a chain around an ATM machine and then used the U-Haul to pull it into the vestibule. They then picked up the machine, put it in the back of the truck and drove away in an unknown direction. Police said the U-Haul was stolen. It was found on the 2400 block of West Montgomery Avenue and the ATM was found empty on the 1800 block of North Taylor Street.
Police did not say how much money was taken in the ATM.
Suspect #1: Black male, wearing a black and white hooded sweatshirt, blue pants and black sneakers.
Suspect #2: Black male, wearing black clothing and red, white and black sneakers.
Suspect #3: Black male, wearing a blue hooded sweatshirt, black pants and black sneakers.
