Top 1-New-Fast-moving thieves rob ATMs of $700,000
TORONTO - More than $700,000 has been ripped out of cash machines by a pair of fast-moving bandits during a 15-month rampage throughout the GTA and parts of Quebec, police said Monday. “Experts in the ATM industry have never seen anything like this before, especially the volume,” said Halton Regional Police Det. Bob Lester. Based on surveillance videos that investigators have examined, Lester said one of the dedicated pair uses a crowbar to jimmy doors at bingo halls, flea markets, arenas, retail shops and grocery stores. His partner then lights up a portable oxyacetylene torch and cuts into cash dispensers — usually clearing out in 60 seconds. Both wear masks, gloves and have been careful to avoid leaving any evidence behind, Lester said. They’re very well-travelled,” and from scanty witness information and surveillance images, regularly change mini-vans and SUVs, which he said prompted police to contact car rental agencies.
In case the bandits visited targeted sites earlier, to “case” the layout, investigators are also asking victims to view the videos, hoping they might recognize the two men’s builds and body-language. There is no evidence they are from the GTA, Lester added. He said the cutting torch duo have targeted more than 50 sites in Toronto, Peel, York, Durham, Niagara, Waterloo, Ottawa and in Quebec. They’re also suspected of carrying out 12 break-ins in Halton and two more in Hamilton.
Top 2-Wow-Dead candidates win elections in Florida, Alabama
Florida Democrat Earl K. Wood and Alabama Republican Charles Beasley won their respective elections but they will not take office. Both men died weeks before the Nov. 6 election yet managed to beat their very much alive opponents by comfortable margins. Wood died on Oct. 15 from natural causes at age 96, during his campaign for a 12th term as Orange County Tax Collector in Orlando, Florida. Criticized for rarely coming into the office while collecting a $150,000 salary and $90,000 pension, Wood initially announced he would step down, only to change his mind when a longtime political foe made plans to seek the seat. Wood’s wide name recognition after almost half a century in office scared off several serious contenders. His name remained on the ballot and he took 56% of the votes to 44% for a Republican who promised to eliminate the office altogether if elected. Beasley, 77, died on Oct. 12, possibly due to an aneurysm, while trying to reclaim his old seat on the Bibb County Commission in central Alabama.
