📰 News we're reading

• Thieves drive off with ATM, dragging it through Fayette County, police say (fox13memphis.com) — An ATM was ripped from the ground at the Bank of Fayette County in Oakland early Monday, then dragged through town behind a stolen truck, according to Oakland Police. The ATM’s alarm never sounded, so officers only learned of the theft when a customer arrived to withdraw cash and found the machine gone. Police have recovered the truck and are reviewing video and other evidence.
