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.
