TWO men were arrested early Saturday while allegedly breaking into an ATM at a bank branch in Civic.

Police watched two men in an enclosed foyer area, allegedly attempting to gain entry to an ATM in City Walk, arresting them at 4.20am.

Police also located a variety of tools in the ATM foyer, and multiple ID and bank cards belonging to people other than the arrested men.

The men, aged 32 and 43, and both residents of Reid, have been charged with aggravated burglary with intent to commit theft. The 32-year-old has also been charged with unlawful possession of stolen property.
