100 ft underground tunnel for cash machine?

Thieves dig tunnel to steal a cash machine in Manchester.


A 100 ft underground tunnel was built in manchester over a period of 6 months to steal a cash machine. The thieves used machinery to cut through 15 inches of concrete to steal the money from Fallowfield Shopping Precinct. The tunnel started from a railway embankment and went underneath a car park and under the store.

Looks like somebody has been watching too much Oceans 11!

  2. Not sure if they got away with it, but I am sure they will find them. I wonder how much money was in the machine that would have been worth all that effort?

  6. All that work, and they got like 1200 quid each... they could have made that while working at McDonalds and not slaving away in a dingy tunnel.

  7. @sub-radar-mike - Also the time that went into this and how much money would it have cost to do it? unless they owned machinery that could cut through cement i can't see how they can justify this as worthwhile.
