15-year-old remanded on bail for ATM scam

A 15-year-old Romanian boy, who took part in a slick ATM scam and stole €200 from under the noses of people as they had been withdrawing money, has been remanded on bail pending sentence.

The Dublin Children’s Court today heard a step-by-step account of how the scam, which involves the use of distraction and slight of hand, worked.
