CCTV Footage Released Of Cameron Park Ram Raid

 BY IAN CROUCH

Police are stepping up their appeal for information following a brazen ATM theft at Cameron Park last month.

A forklift was used to smash through the front doors of the Cameron Park Plaza Shopping Centre in the early hours of Sunday September 5, with the ATM removed and carried away.

Remnants of the machine were found at a nearby building site and the forklift was dumped in bushland.

Detectives have released CCTV footage depicting two men they wish to speak with in relation to the incident.

Robbery and Serious Crime Squad Commander, Detective Superintendent Andrew Koutsoufis is urging anyone with information about the forklift's movements on the night of the ram raid to come forward.

"This was a particularly brazen and destructive robbery which caused thousands of dollars of damage and no doubt would've taken a certain degree of planning from those involved. It was also unique given the use of the forklift," he said.

We've posted the footage on the 2NURFM Hunter News Facebook page.
