Police are probing yet another ATM theft in Northern Ireland.

Emergency services were called to Market Square in Bushmills in the early hours.

Just like other occasions in recent months, the cash machine was ripped from a wall by a digger which was then set on fire along with a tractor and trailer.

Two appliances from Portrush and a Fire officer were dispatched around 3.30am.

The centre of the village is closed this morning (Tuesday) while PSNI investigations continue.

It is understood, that a total of 10 cash machines have been stolen in the last year.
