The officer saw a man go into the gas station, wrap a chain around the ATM and attach it to a green Dodge pickup truck, which police said was reported stolen.

Another man drove the truck and pulled the ATM out of the business. Police said the men then loaded it onto the truck and drove away.

Police said the officer notified patrol officers and a chase ensued.

The men drove the pickup truck to the 3000 block of Bickers Street, where police said two of the men left the truck and ran away. A third man, found hiding in the truck, was taken to police headquarters for questioning.

The other two men remain at large.
