HOUSTON (AP) — Five individuals are facing aggravated robbery charges after police in suburban Houston arrested them for allegedly robbing an ATM from a gas station.

Police in Humble say several men used a stolen truck to ram into the side of the gas station early Monday morning. The store was open at the time but no injuries were reported.

The suspects then loaded the ATM and drove away. A witness who followed the suspects told police where the ATM had been taken and authorities arrested the suspects in a home in northeast Harris County.

One of the five people arrested in the home had tried to hide in the attic, but fell through the ceiling when police arrived.
