The Tesco Express was closed and the area where the cash machine is remains boarded up.

More than three days on from the smash-and-grab raid police are yet to question any potential suspects.

A spokeswoman said: ‘Enquiries continue, no arrests have been made at this stage. Anyone with information about the incident or may have seen or recorded what happened should contact us.’

The incident has caused concern in the community with the area prone to ATM ram-raids from gangs in recent years.
