Two men raided a Nantwich petrol station and escaped with an ATM cash machine, police say.
The men targeted the service station at Wardle on the A51 before heading off in a Land Rover-style vehicle towards Nantwich.
A 72-year-old pensioner was robbed at a cash machine outside a supermarket in Crewe, police say.
The victim was withdrawing money from an ATM outside Morrison’s on Dunwoody Way when she was approached from behind by an unknown man.
Police in Nantwich have issued a warning after this skimming device used by crooks was found attached to a cashpoint in the town.
The device is designed to copy bank account details which thieves can then use to clone a user’s card.
Nantwich shoppers are being warned about a gang who target people at cash machines and then steal their purses or wallets. The warning comes after a number of incidents in and around the town, the latest at Sainsbury’s supermarket on Middlewich Road.
