Waitemata Police are asking the public to help identify the male in these pictures after a number of attempted burglaries of ATM machines across the North Shore.
The male specifically targets ATM areas behind doors early in the morning where he is able to hang drop sheets in the window to make it appear as if maintenance work is being completed.
Detective Sergeant Craig Taylor, of the Waitemata Tactical Crime Unit, is urging anyone who sees or passes an ATM area which is covered with a sheet and closed sign, especially outside of business hours, to contact police immediately.
“We are also keen to hear about any suspicious person(s) seen loitering around ATM areas or someone carrying sheets who match the man in the photos provided.”
Police would also like to hear from anyone who may recognise or knows who this male is and ask them to contact Constable Charlotte Donaldson at the North Shore Police Station on (09) 477 5000.
Alternatively, information can also be provided anonymously via the organisation Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
