Three unidentified people are at the center of an ATM tampering investigation in Edinburg, Virginia, and the Shenandoah County Sheriff’s Office wants the public’s help putting names to their faces. Investigators say the incident unfolded overnight on October 30, sometime between 12:30 a.m. and 2 a.m., at the F&M Bank location in town.
According to WHSV, the sheriff’s office is “asking for the public’s help identifying three people in connection with an ATM tampering incident in Edinburg.” Investigators have released surveillance images showing the three individuals they believe were involved, the station reports, in hopes that someone in the community can recognize them.
What Investigators Say Happened at the Bank
The timeline laid out by the sheriff’s office is specific: the tampering is said to have occurred at F&M Bank in Edinburg sometime in that narrow overnight window on October 30. Per RocktownNow, the sheriff’s office says the three individuals allegedly tampered with the ATM at the bank’s Edinburg branch.
Beyond the timeframe and location, the publicly available details are limited. The station’s report does not lay out what, if anything, the tampering yielded, and no further specifics about the method or extent of the alleged tampering have been disclosed.
Tip Line and a Caution to Online Sleuths
Anyone with information is asked to contact Investigator Wymer at (540) 459-6100, per the station’s report. The sheriff’s office has also asked the public not to share information in comments that could lead to identifying the individuals or revealing their whereabouts, a request aimed at keeping the investigation from being compromised by premature online speculation.
The case remains an active search for the three people pictured in the released images. No further updates on the investigation’s status have been made public.
