BROOKLINE, Mass. -- Thieves are caught on camera looking for any means possible to steal an ATM.
Omar Ali Credle, a former Longwood Towers employee, and another accomplice allegedly used a wheelchair to cart off an entire teller machine on the night of April 18 from the apartment building where Credle used to work.
To pull off the heist, police say the pair stole a swipe card for the complex as well as keys to a tenant's vehicle before using the wheelchair to make off with the machine that they estimate contained close to $1,800.
Authorities on Tuesday recovered the stolen vehicle near Credle's last known address in Dorchester.
Police have issued a warrant for Credle, who will be facing charges of larceny from a building and malicious destruction of property.
They are still searching for the second suspect.
Anyone with any information about the incident is asked to call the anonymous police tip line, 617-232-DOPE (3673).
