“# Bungled Bitcoin ATM theft in \u2018meatspace\u2019 won’t ruin Thanksgiving <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

A delicatessen <\/strong>in the Canadian town of Kelowna, British Colombia has been severely damaged after two bumbling crooks attempted to steal a Bitcoin ATM installed in a store adjacent to it.<\/p>\n

At roughly 3am on October 7, the two suspects unsuccessfully attempted to steal the Bitcoin ATM located on the back wall of the neighbouring store. While attempting to flee empty-handed they backed their white GMC Sierra pick-up truck into L&D Meats and Deli and smashed its front wall.<\/p>\n

The chance they\u2019ll be caught seems quite high, as local police noted that the thieves managed to leave their tailgate behind. Solana Par\u00e9, a spokesperson for Kelowna police stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cA preliminary assessment conducted by staff on-site, suggests that despite the thousands of dollars in damage caused, nothing app<\/a>ears to be taken from inside the business as the suspects were unsuccessful in taking the Bitcoin ATM.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Given how inept the attempted theft was, you have to wonder if the criminals were hoping to steal the \u201cBitcoins\u2019 inside the machine, or if they were after cash.<\/p>\n

The deli\u2019s owner Don Favell lamented the timing of the incident, noting that Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and his customers are expecting to receive pre-ordered meat before the holiday.<\/p>\n

Favell said the damages will be covered by his insurance and that he is now focused on trying to get his business up and running again. He told local media<\/a>: \u201cThat\u2019s all we can do, look after everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey will get their turkeys,\u201d he vowed.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin ATM theft does not appear to attract the most sophisticated of criminals. In November 201, two thieves broke into a grocery store in British Colombia to crack open a Bitcoin ATM installed inside. They stole $4,000 but accidentally left $50,000 behi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
