An ATM theft reported in Windsor Locks the day after Christmas is the latest in a string of robberies across the state.
Windsor Locks police said they were made aware of a robbery at the Valero gas station on Main Street just before 2:30 a.m. on Dec. 26.
Responding officers found the store's doors wide open with a lot of debris in the entryway. Authorities said the ATM was missing.
Surveillance video shows a black Acura MDX pulling up to the gas station and forcing entry inside. Then, two people entered the store, attached a tow hook and cable to the ATM, and pulled it out - causing damage.
