More than 60 million yen was stolen from an automated teller machine at a supermarket parking lot in Noda, Chiba ....ATM's housing had been destroyed and the part of the ATM containing the cash had been ripped out. The police said a power shovel and several 10,000 yen bills were found nearby.
I wondered what happened to these crimes. I hadn't read about one in months. I'd guess that 60 mill is a record. I saw in the Japanese language Mainichi (maybe it was there) where some ATMs were being outfitted with steel cages to prevent these sorts of crimes. I'll see if I can track that down.
