Northamptonshire Police appeal after Asda Raunds telehandler theft

Northamptonshire Police said offenders used a telehandler to smash into and steal a cash machine from Asda in Raunds at about 03:10 BST. The Asda Raunds telehandler ATM theft happened on Michael Way, and police are now asking anyone who saw suspicious activity to step forward.

The time matters because it narrows the search to a short early-morning window. Anyone with dashcam or doorbell camera footage from the area around that point could still hold the clearest record of what happened.

Michael Way, Raunds

Police said the offenders smashed their way into the ATM at a branch of Asda supermarket on Michael Way, Raunds, Northamptonshire. That gives witnesses a specific place and time to check against any footage, vehicle movements, or noise they noticed overnight.

For customers and nearby residents, the practical next step is simple: review any recordings from around 03:10 BST and pass on anything that shows people, vehicles, or machinery near Asda in Raunds. Northamptonshire Police is asking for that information now, while the incident is still fresh.

Northamptonshire Police appeal

After the incident, Northamptonshire Police appealed for witnesses and any dashcam or doorbell camera footage. The force has not released any detail on how the cash machine was taken beyond the use of the telehandler, so the scale of the theft is still not clear from the public account.

Asda would not comment on how much cash was stolen, leaving that part of the incident unanswered. What readers can do now is check footage from the time, then contact Northamptonshire Police if anything in it shows the telehandler, the ATM, or activity near the store.
