Police: Thieves try to rip ATM out of Clearview Federal Credit Union in Kennedy Township

KENNEDY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (KDKA) - A brazen robbery attempt happened in Kennedy Township on Thursday morning as thieves attempted to get away with an ATM at a credit union. 

It all happened just before 4 a.m. at the Clearview Federal Credit Union on Langer Drive. 

It's unclear how the outdoor ATM became dislodged by the would-be capers but they were not able to get the machine more than a few feet before leaving it and taking off.
