Thieves drive JCB through fence and rip out parking meters
23rd December 2009
Thieves stole a JCB digger from a building site, smashed through a fence and used the vehicle to wrench two parking meters out of the ground and shake the coins out, police said.
The culprits, thought to be two men, started up the mini-digger after breaking into the site and finding it still had the key in the ignition.
We have the technology. And, if left unsecured, it can be re-purposed.
