Police appeal after ATM theft in Bridge of Weir

Police Scotland are appealing for information following the theft of an ATM from a shop in Bridge of Weir.

The incident happened around 3.55am on Monday when officers received a report of a break-in at the Co‑op store on Main Street. A Mitsubishi L200 pick-up truck was used to crash into the front of the shop, before three men wearing face coverings, red gloves, and dark clothing entered and removed the ATM.

The suspects then left the scene in a grey Audi S3, heading towards Johnstone, leaving the pick-up truck behind.

Detective Constable Ryan McGuire said: “This appears to have been a well-planned theft and enquiries are ongoing to trace those involved. We believe the men may have travelled to the Dalry area in the Audi.

“We are asking anyone who saw anything suspicious in the area before or after the theft to get in touch. Please also check any private CCTV footage you may have to see if anything has been captured to assist with our investigation.

“Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 0473 of 18 August 2025, or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
