TOMBALL, Texas — A couple of guys stole an ATM machine in Tomball early Wednesday but they didn't get far, according to Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman's Office.
It happened just after 4 a.m. at N. Eldridge Parkway and Spring Cypress Road.
The thieves hooked the Wells Fargo ATM to the back of their pickup and drove off with it, Pct. 4 said.
Deputies who responded to the scene spotted the truck less than a minute later. That's when both suspects jumped out and took off on foot.
One guy was quickly captured and arrested in a nearby residential area. According to Pct. 4, he had two open warrants, including one for aggravated robbery. Now, he'll be charged with second-degree felony theft from an ATM machine.
The other man got away.
Precinct 4 shared photos of 100, 20 and 10-dollar bills scattered all over the street and in a yard where the suspect was arrested.
