Fla. police find ATM in backseat of car

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. (UPI) -- During a routine arrest of two suspected burglars in Florida, police were shocked to discover a stolen automated teller machine in the back of the duo's car.

When Jacksonville Beach police arrested John Kiedroski and Damien Shain Lee Saturday, they found very damaging evidence in the suspected burglars' car in the form of a stolen ATM, the Florida Times-Union reported.

Several Florida police departments had been working together to keep the suspects under surveillance and the two were arrested after allegedly robbing a Jacksonville Beach store.

It was then that police followed them to a home in nearby Atlantic Beach and located the store's ATM in the suspects' car.

The paper said as the men remain in custody, police are attempting to determine what other stolen items may be present at their home.
