The force issued the appeal as footage shows the bizarre aftermath of the robbery. Instead of smashing down the wall to lift the ATM out from the front, as has often happened in such thefts, the raiders removed the machine from behind and carted it off 鈥 apparently by entering through an access door in the side of the building. The result is a shopfront with very little outward damage, but a hole where the machine should be. The theft occurred at the Russell鈥檚 petrol station / grocery shop on the Upper Road in Greenisland, near Carrickfergus. The business is open today as usual. The PSNI said: 鈥淒etectives are investigating a report of the theft of an ATM from retail premises in the Upper Road area of Greenisland, around 1.30am on Thursday, June 26. “Enquiries are ongoing and anyone who was in the area at the time and saw anything, or who may have dash-cam, CCTV or other video footage, is asked to contact police on 101, quoting reference number 84 of 26/6/25. “A report can be made online using the non-emergency reporting form via http://www.psni.police.uk/makeareport/ or you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at http://crimestoppers-uk.org/.鈥
