Video: Help Cops Find Person of Interest in Target ATM Heist

Anyone who knows the identity of the person in this video is encouraged to contact the Davis PD.

Two suspects in May drove a Dodge Pickup through the glass doors of the Target in East Davis. The Davis Police Department now has a person of interest in that investigation. 

At 3 am on May 22, two suspects attached a cable to an ATM machine and attempted to use the pickup truck to pull the machine out of the wall. When their plan failed, they fled the store, leaving the truck behind.

The truck was determined to have been stolen from a landfill just north of the city limits. The damage done to the store cost over 100,000 dollars to repair.
