Thieves have carried out a brazen ATM heist early on Christmas Eve at a Texas 7-Eleven, using a stolen SUV to rip the cash machine out as surveillance cameras captured the carnage.
Police say the suspects hit the store in northwest Fort Worth around 3:45am, while it was open and the lights were on.
One suspect smashed through the entrance and rushed inside while an accomplice waited outside in an SUV.
Moments later, the pair hooked a metal cable from the vehicle to the ATM inside the store and floored it, dragging the machine out through the doorway and leaving the store badly damaged.
The force of the ATM being violently ripped from its position demolished shelves in an instant, leaving packets of chips and other products all over the floor.
The store's doors were demolished, leaving a considerable amount of debris in their wake.
The video shows the ATM eventually breaking loose. The machine was later abandoned along a nearby highway service road, along with the stolen vehicle.
Police say the getaway mirrors a pattern tied to similar ATM heist attempts across the Dallas–Fort Worth area.

The kind of intelligence democrats appreciate.
If they had waited until July 11 (7-11) they could’ve gotten a free slurpee to go with that ATM.
Maybe dems need some operating campaign money fast.
” it was open and the lights were on.”
Must be one of those new fangled self serve 7-11s.....not one word about any clerks in the store.
Were they in back on smoke break, hiding out of fear or in on it?
We all pay for this kind of horrible destruction in higher prices and higher insurance rates.
It is far easier to destroy than to build.
I lived near that part of Ft. Worth for a short time (not short enough). At Christmas the local Walmart had armed uniformed police officers inside the store, near the electronics section.
The way they are moving does not resemble the usual chimp walk.
I would bet they are scumbag Central American gang members. The exact type that the Quisling Puppet Biden regime let in. Why is Alejandro Mayorkas still breathing?
Article doesn’t say but I guess the abandon ATM was NOT successfully broken into for it’s money. This use to happen a lot when ATMs first came out. Thieves hauled the machines off to an area where they could break out heavy duty tools to access the money, but the machines were built to handle anything your low level thief could pull off.
I always wondered if a typical cutting torch could get into one. Even then you’d probably have to know what you were doing, and the work you put in would be tantamount to an eight hour shift.
He obviously sold his soul to satan years ago.
LOL! Great image.
The two-faced are having a Two Hearted Ale.
.....”carnage....”...?
not the proper use of that word, but I guess in the UK it may mean something else....
“Carnage refers to the violent killing of a large number of people, especially in the context of war or battle. It can also describe great destruction of life and is often associated with scenes of bloodshed and slaughter.”
The ATM should have the dye packs loaded into it for such an incident.
It’s a whole lot more authentic if some of the beer has been drank out of the glass.
And f@rt spray.
This was happening in the schools when computers came in - thieves would hook up the doors to a truck and pull the doors off - clearing out entire computer labs.
Door were switch to steel, the doorknobs gone and a vertical metal bar used to open/close - they managed to get around that too and continued to use trucks to pull off doors.
Lost all the computers in my classroom, printers too.
I’ve described the scattering of vehicles on Hwy 3 as carnage. A dozen or so semi tractor and trailer units jackknifed all the way up a climb to a mountain pass, no possible travel until both a couple of wreckers and a sanding plow show up, people huddled in one or two vehicles warming up because it’s minus 30.
I’d consider that a form of carnage.
