ATM theft and robbery attempts in Mexico

Overview

In early October, police in Parras, Coahuila, arrested two men from Mexico City after they attempted to steal 8,000 pesos from an elderly person’s pension at a Bancomer ATM. The suspects were intercepted by State Police after a witness alerted authorities, and the full amount was recovered.

By late October, another incident was reported in Ciudad Serdán, Mexico, where a man was detained by the Municipal Public Security Secretariat after attempting to steal a Banorte ATM. The suspect was apprehended following the triggering of bank alarms.
