Careening Dodge Pickup That Fled Scene of ATM Theft at CR May Have Been Stolen
This is a press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:
On Saturday, January 21, 2017 at approximately 10:20 p.m. Humboldt County Deputy Sheriffs responded to the College of the Redwoods on Tompkins Hill Rd in Eureka for a report of a burglary.
CR security informed deputies that a white 2002 Dodge Ram pickup had intentionally crashed into a glass wall of the library. After gaining access to the building the suspected driver tied a chain to an ATM machine inside the library and drove off. While fleeing, the vehicle ran over a bicycle, a light pole, a large rock, a metal pole and a wooden park bench. The pickup then careened down an embankment into a parking lot and fled the campus.
Prior to leaving campus property the ATM machine became dislodged from the chain and was left on scene. The vehicle continued to flee northbound on Hwy 101 and was later located by deputies parked along the highway near Fields Landing. A search of the area was conducted, however, deputies searched the area and were unable to locate possible suspects. The vehicle was possibly an unreported stolen vehicle, and was later towed by law enforcement.
Anyone with information for the Sheriff’s Office regarding this case or related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Sheriff’s Office at 707-445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Crime Tip line at 707-268-2539.

Duh ya think lol even if it wasn’t stolen it’s going to be reported stolen
Ok where is the follow up to this
What kind of follow up would you like?
When the investigation is done there will be a follow up Einstein
Is this the same truck car jacked from bear river?
Apparently, “Dodge trucks ARE ram tough!” Envisioning this near-heist just cracked me up. Hope the owner is insured.
If you can’t dodge em ram em
Feel most sorry for the rock. The rock wasn’t hurting anyone. It was just chilling and hanging out and those idiots ran it over. RIP poor little rock!
Unsuccessful heist of an atm. Hit a bicycle, light pole,metal pole and a large rock. I’ve heard and seen some ridiculous shit in my day. I think humboldt takes the cake for the biggest bucket of terds in the country.
Really? You should get out more! This planet is full of idiots! Especially ones who can’t spell turd
Driving lessons aren’t free, ya know. Now that the ATM machine became dislodged, how in the heck will this poor driver ever get his license?
