Police in Portland, Oregon, said one suspect wanted in the ATM robbery at Fastrak Food Mart was wearing a distinct jacket which they hope can help identify them.

A pair of thieves are wanted in Portland after surveillance video showed the suspects smashing a van through a local business and stealing an ATM early Tuesday, authorities said.

The brazen smash-and-grab happened at 4:35 a.m. at a Fastrak Food Mart on Northeast Broadway Street, the Portland Police Bureau said.

Surveillance video shows the burglars back a white van through the storefront and loading the ATM into the back of the vehicle.
