Some enterprising criminals tried unsuccessfully Monday to recreate a scene from the movie “Barbershop” by using a stolen tow truck to take the ATM machine from Guaranty Bank & Trust, 1900 Cherry St.
Vicksburg police Capt. Sandra Williams said the attempted theft occurred about 9 p.m. Monday, about an hour after police responded to a report that a tow truck was stolen from Bell’s Towing, 1900 S. Frontage Road.
“The attempted theft of the ATM was captured by surveillance cameras in the area,” she said.
Anyone with information about the attempted theft should call Crime Stoppers at 601-355- 8477 or 1-866-481-8477 to anonymously submit information.
