00:00OP Nation, police in Indianapolis need you to be on the lookout for a pair of laundromat larcenists.
00:10It's 4.54 a.m. and a pair of men in this maroon Kia are pulling into the parking lot of this West Indianapolis laundromat.
00:20The passenger gets out, along with the driver, who proceeds to the back of the SUV and lifts open the hatch.
00:27The passenger grabs a chain and they head into the laundromat and straight for the ATM,
00:34where they quickly realize they forgot to attach the chain to the back of the car.
00:39The driver hooks the chain to the hitch, but it looks like the chain is about 7 or 8 feet too short.
00:47Not to worry, though, it appears they have a solution.
00:51The driver gets back in the car, pulls forward, and puts the car in reverse, and the car smashes through the glass door.
01:00The passenger tries to attach the hook to the back of the ATM, but try as he might, the chain is still too short.
01:08The driver gets back in the car and backs the SUV closer to the ATM.
01:14The passenger reaches behind the ATM and attempts to attach the hook to the back of the machine,
01:20when suddenly the driver takes off without the ATM.
01:26The passenger chases after the car, grabs the chain, and back they go.
01:33He heads to the ATM, and the SUV crashes into the washing machines.
01:38Looks like at last he's got the hook firmly attached.
01:45He gives the driver the OK sign, but the ATM does not move an inch.
01:53He backs up and tries again.
01:56Still nothing.
01:58He tries again, but this ATM will not budge.
02:02The driver floors it.
02:04He's giving it everything he's got, and now the wheels are beginning to smoke.
02:09It looks like the driver's stuck in the spin cycle.
02:13At this point, they decide to call it a night.
02:16The passenger removes the chain and jumps back in the car.
02:21And the two men make a heavily soiled getaway,
02:24leaving behind nearly half a dozen destroyed washing machines,
02:28as well as a giant hole in the front of the building.
02:33Now, police need your help.
02:35We didn't get a very good look at the driver,
02:38but the passenger appeared to be a white male, possibly in his early 20s,
02:42with glasses, black and red basketball shorts,
02:45with the Chicago Bulls logo, and a gray zip-up windbreaker.
02:49If you recognize these guys or know anything about what happened,
02:53call Crime Stoppers at 1-317-262-8477.
03:00Talk about determination.
03:03One more clue could be that red key SUV which they were driving
03:06because it hasn't been recovered yet.
