Cash machine thieves 'just hoods not Robin Hoods'

Retail NI chief Glyn Roberts described the meeting as "very productive" adding they were assured that there would be extra patrols to tackle the issue.He also said that those involved in the thefts were not "Robin Hoods" but "criminals of the worst kind".Since the start of the year, eight cash machines have been ripped from walls by diggers in Northern Ireland. "We need to see these gangs put out of commission," Mr Roberts said, calling for the public to be extra vigilant."If they hear or see anything suspicious like a digger driving to their town or village in the middle of the night, be under no illusion, ring 999," he said."We also need to nail the lie that these gangs are somehow Robin Hoods, they are just hoods.
