Irmo, SC (WLTX) - A surveillance video shows the efforts that police say one man went through in his attempt to steal an ATM from a Broad River Road gas station canopy.
Irmo police released the video Tuesday afternoon of the incident that took place overnight Tuesday. The arrest was reported earlier in the day on WLTX.com. Original Story: Man Accused of Backing Truck Into Store to Steal ATM Machine
Irmo police say Dicky Thomas Boyd, 29, tried to steal an automated teller machine from inside the Corner Pantry at the intersection of Broad River Road and Koon Road.
In the video, a pick-up truck can be seen backing into the front of the store, shattering the glass. The video goes on to show the suspect struggling to put a chain around the machine and drag it out of structural canopies. Finally, the suspect can be seen attempting to lift the machine and put it into the bed of the truck, but with no luck.
The suspect is interrupted by an Irmo police officer who saw the incident and intervened. The video shows the suspect get inside the vehicle, and drive away. The officer pursues in his car.
Police say the officer chased Boyd for a short distance, and Boyd’s truck hit a tree on Connie Wright Road. Boyd was then taken to the hospital.
Boyd has been charged with second-degree burglary, grand larceny, failure to stop for a blue light, and driving under the influence.
WLTX has learned that Boyd was arrested in February 2009 and accused of robbing the South Carolina Credit Union on Broad River Road. He was free on bond on those charges.
Irmo police say they’re looking for more information in this case. Anyone with information should call Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC, or e-mail a tip in to Crimestoppers of the Midlands. You can also text information in by texting “TIPSC” plus your message to CRIMES (274637). Either way you choose, your identity will remain anonymous, and you could be eligible for a cash reward.
Corel’s New Digital Studio 10 Edits Images, Video
by admin on Jul.16, 2009, under News
Given the ever-increasing number of digital cameras that can shoot video–to say nothing of all the video cameras that can capture still images–it makes sense to have photo and video editing tools in one place. That’s exactly what Corel has done with its latest release, Digital Studio 2010, which was released today.
The software, which combines the functionality of PaintShop Photo Express and VideoStudio Express and also includes tools for DVD burning and playback, is not aimed at the enthusiast–it won’t have all the functionality you might find in a higher-level (and higher-priced) product. But for everyday operations, it’s got you covered, offering one-click repairs for common photo and video flaws, easy-to-assemble slideshows or home movies, and a common interface across all the various elements of the suite.
Other features in the suite include: support for high-definition video formats; online printing (available beginning in mid September); a media organizer that lets you see all your photos and videos in one location; and easy sharing over services like Facebook, Flickr, and YouTube, as well as the capability to export to your mobile phone.
Corel Digital Studio 2010 will run on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 systems, and is available today in the United States and Canada for download from Corel’s Web site, for $99.99. (It will be available in other countries in about two weeks.) If you really don’t need photo and video editing, you can get either PaintShop Photo Express 2010 or VideoStudio Express 2010, for $49.99.
We’ve got the software now, and are working on putting it through its paces. Check out PCMag.com soon for our full review!
