Angry over not being able to withdraw cash, a police constable damaged two ATMs in Andhra Pradesh.
The incident occurred in Paderu in Visakhapatnam district on Friday night when the constable stood in queue at a State Bank of India ATM to withdraw cash.
But by the time his turn came the machine had stopped working as it was apparently cash-dry.
Irritated, the cop kicked the machine repeatedly. He left but returned a few minutes later to vent his ire on the other machine at the ATM station.
Following this, bank authorities locked the ATM and handed over the CCTV footage of the incident to police for further action.
