Ione ATM robbed
Warrenton man new principal at lone
Mike Stuart
Laurie Rosenbush with damaged ATM machine.
A thief not only helped himself
to cash at the ATM machine at
the lone branch of the Bank of
Eastern Oregon last Tuesday, but
also incapacitated the machine so
that no one else could use it
either.
The thief used a crowbar to
open the machine and took an
undisclosed amount of cash.
When bank employees arrived at
work on Tuesday morning, the
doors were open and the cash and
cash box missing.
"The sad thing is," said lone
branch teller Laurie Rosenbush,
"is that they've really messed it
up for a lot of people. We don't
know when we'll haye the service
r,n‘jback and people are really used
to using the machine."
Rosenbush advises BEO lone
branch customers to remember
that regular hours at the branch
are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. She says that
customers may also use the BEO
ATMs at Heppner, Arlington,
Bo ndman and Irrigon. She says
that BEO customers may also use
the ATM at Lexington, however
there is a fee.
Linda LaRue, BEO executive
vice president, chief operations
officer, asks that anyone finding
the 10"xl8" metal cash box or
anyone with information about
the theft to call the Morrow
County Sheriffs Office, 676-
5317. LaRue said that the cable
to the surveillance camera was
cut by the thief.
