This ATM was well built

POTOMAC, Md. (AP) - May 8, 2013

Police in suburban Washington report a trio of crooks tried stealing an ATM with a backhoe.

Security video shows the thieves attempting to yank the ATM from the wall of a Bank of America branch in Potomac, Maryland.

They wrapped a chain around the cash machine and pulled it with the backhoe.

But police says they couldn't get the ATM into a pickup truck.

The crooks took off before police arrived.

Investigators say no money was taken, but the ATM was damaged.

Police are trying to ID the three suspects.
