ATM Thieves Stopped by GPS

News of how a GPS helps in society – this is way better than reading about all those sex offender GPS tracking stories....

Apparently some thieves hotwired a forklift to steal an ATM, but they didn’t realize that the thing had a GPS transponder inside, which eventually brought the Law to them. When the sheriff’s deputies arrived on the scene where the ATM was about four hours after the ATM was stolen, they found the ATM still wasn’t cracked. The ATM seemed to have survived a pry bar, a sledgehammer, and even a welder’s torch. The two men who apparently stole the ATM were brought into custody.
