Humberside Police are investigating after ram raiders ripped a cash machine from a shop in Howden in the early hours of Wednesday (23).
According to local reports, offenders arrived at the scene on Market Place at 3 am in a dark Audi and a silver Transit van.
The van was used to damage the doors allowing the removal of the ATM from the Today's Local convenience store and cash was removed from the machine before the suspects fled in the Audi, leaving the Transit at the scene.
"We were called shortly after 3am with reports of a loud banging noise and a vehicle, described as a dark coloured Audi, driving away from the area,’ local reports quoted Humberside police as saying.
“Officers attended and found that someone had damaged a cash machine before taking money from inside.
“A silver-coloured Transit van with a black stripe along the side, union flag on the back door and orange edging had been left outside the business.
“Investigations are underway and we ask anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area to get in touch with us.
“We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who saw an Audi and van (matching the above descriptions) travelling in convoy prior to the incident,” police said.
