An attempt to steal a Euronet ATM took place after 2:00 a.m. on the night from Sunday to Monday. The perpetrators drove a tractor and a van to the ATM outside the Stara Mleczarnia shopping gallery on Jeleniogórska Street in Bolesławiec. They were preparing to pull out the machine using the tractor and a special strap. The police then intervened. The thieves began to flee.
During the escape, one of the perpetrators hit a building at the intersection of Jeleniogórska and Leśna streets with a tractor. He began to flee on foot. Police officers caught up with him halfway along Zwycięstwa Street. The thief was taken to the police station. The other perpetrators managed to escape in the van.
We learned unofficially that the attackers were dangerous and may have been armed.
