Gardai in Laois are urging people to be cautious when using ATM/cash machines at banks.

A spokesperson for gardai said people must 'be cognizant' when withdrawing money that other people may be watching movements and 'will attempt to steal your money'.

"If you have to withdraw monies then go straight to the place or person you are giving cash to. Consider electronic payments too. Do not ever leave cash in your vehicle," the garda spokesperson said.
