The Livingston ATM Theft occurred in the early hours of Monday, June 15, 2026, when Police Scotland was alerted at around 3:10 a.m. to a break-in at premises on Almondvale Boulevard in Livingston. The ATM was accessed and a five-figure amount of cash was taken. Police said three males were involved and were believed to have left in a Nardo Grey Audi A4, travelling west along Almondvale Boulevard.
An Overnight Theft With a Wider Security Challenge
Police described the three suspects as wearing hooded clothing and gloves. Officers later appealed for information and specifically asked members of the public to provide any relevant dashcam footage that could assist the investigation.
The incident demonstrates the challenge businesses face with high-value assets during overnight hours. A conventional camera can record an event, but if nobody is actively monitoring the footage, important activity may only be discovered after the cash has been taken.
This is where AI video analytics can add another layer of security awareness.
