FOUR men armed with power tools have raided an ATM at the Co-operative store in Orford.
Investigations are ongoing to trace the culprits who struck at 3.10am last Thursday, August 23, at the shop on Cotswold Road.
The offenders cut through the mental shutters using a power tool before smashing through the glass.
The men then removed the money from inside before making off from the scene in a dark coloured car.
All of the men were wearing balaclavas.
DC Jason Heath, of Warrington CID, said: “As part of our investigation, we are keeping an open mind as to whether this incident could be linked to a previous one in Ellesmere Port and two in the Chorley area on Wednesday.
“While our enquiries continue I want to appeal to anyone with any information to come forward and call 101.”
Anyone with information can call Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 162706, give the details via cheshire.police.uk/contact/general-enquiries or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
