(Council Bluffs) The Council Bluffs Police Department is investigating a robbery.
On Thursday, at around 2:34 p.m., officers were dispatched to the Casey’s General Store at 15 North 16th Street for a report of a vehicle break-in. Authorities say a suspect broke the window of an unoccupied vehicle belonging to a company that services ATMs while the car was parked in the convenience store lot. The perpetrator removed a bag that contained an undetermined amount of US Currency.
The person was driving a silver Hyundai Tucson SUV with paper dealer plates. Officers checked the area but could not locate it, but it is similar to one used in a previous ATM robbery in Omaha.
Anyone who witnessed this incident or has information that could assist in this investigation is encouraged to contact the Council Bluffs Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division at 712-328-4728.
