Ram-raiders use digger to steal two ATMs from supermarket

Ram-raiders used a digger to steal two cash machines from a supermarket in Kent.

The store in Dover was targeted in the early hours of Monday morning.

The digger was used to rip the machines from the wall of Tesco in Honeywood Parkway in Whitfield.

The cash machines were then loaded into a truck and driven away, alongside two other vehicles.

The thieves then rammed two police cars, which had tried to stop them getting away.
