Appeal to identify key witness in Southampton ATM theft

Officers investigating the theft of cash from an ATM in Sholing would like to appeal to the driver of a vehicle seen on Station Road just before the incident occurred.

At 1.52am on Wednesday 14 August, a small vehicle is seen on CCTV to be driving down Station Road, with Best One on its left. It then slowly turns right onto Cranbury Road.

At 1.55am, the cash machine next to Best One is believed to have exploded.

Officers are appealing directly to the driver of the small vehicle that turned right onto Cranbury Road.
