Robbers are believed to have carted away two CIMB Bank automatic teller machines (ATM) in Jalan Besar, Bestari Jaya, early Thursday morning using an excavator.

Kuala Selangor District Police chief Supt Ruslan Abdullah said they received a report about the incident at about 5am on Thursday morning.

"Initial investigations revealed that the criminals used an excavator to dismantle the ATM machines before loading them into a four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicle. The excavator was found abandoned at the crime scene," he told reporters here, yesterday.

Police are tracking down the owner of the excavator while losses have yet to be ascertained by the bank.

The case is being investigated under Section 457 of the Penal Code.
