Police arrested two men from southern Israel, aged 19 and 25, on suspicion of stealing an ATM from a pizzeria in Tel Aviv’s Ramat HaHayal neighborhood. The machine was recovered, and a car allegedly used by the gang was seized.
Overnight between November 6 and 7, police received a report that masked men had taken the ATM from the pizzeria and fled by car. Officers from the Tel Aviv North station searched the area and found the suspected getaway car fitted with fake license plates. The ATM believed to have been stolen was found nearby.
During the search, undercover detectives spotted two suspects close by. When the detectives approached, the pair tried to run and were arrested. Gloves and face coverings were found on them.
Officers from the Lev Tel Aviv station in the Yarkon region also took part. The suspects were taken to the Tel Aviv North station for questioning, and the investigation is continuing.
