A woman in Maine who was out for a walk one morning last week stumbled upon a strange sight that has left authorities baffled: a perfectly intact ATM sitting at the edge of a forest. According to a local media report, the bizarre find was made in the town of Deer Isle in a rather remote location more than a half mile off of a dirt road. Upon seeing the out-of-place cash dispenser, the woman promptly phoned police with news of the weird discovery.
Upon arriving on the scene, Detective Steve McFarland easily spotted the ATM standing out among the otherwise picturesque wilderness around it. "It was set up like a hunter might need quick cash for a cup of coffee in the middle of the woods," he observed. While clues concerning the origin of the machine were scarce, McFarland noted that there were footprints in the snow around the ATM which indicated that a group of people had deposited the machine in that particular spot.
But what left the seasoned detective scratching his head was the condition of the ATM as it did not appear to have a scratch on it. Learn more about this puzzling case at the Coast to Coast AM website.
