POLICE say 27 ATMs were targeted in a series of raids spanning five regions since February.
Three people have been charged as part of an investigation into a series of cash machine raids across the Midlands and Wales.
David Price, aged 43, of Blakenhall, Adam Walker, 38, of Moseley, and Joanne McGregor, 40, of Wednesfield – all in Wolverhampton – were arrested on Thursday.
The trio are accused of carrying out a number of raids since February, during which 27 cash machines were targeted and more than £300,000 was stolen across the West Midlands, Staffordshire, Derbyshire, the West Mercia Police area and Denbighshire.
All three have been charged with conspiracy to burgle, conspiracy to handle stolen goods and possession of criminal property.
Police said 14 of the 27 raids were successful. One of those involved a raid on the Santander branch on Stourbridge High Street on June 25, when a cash box was taken.
Two further suspects have been released on bail while the investigation continues.
