why are some of these machins still close to store windows? dont get it!!!!!

Before retiring I did the structural plans for over 150 Walgreens in Texas with ATMs and I have never understood why the money for these ATM's is not stored under the slab in a secured vault with a tube similar to a drive though bank teller to transmit the money to customers. Then when the machines are stolen there would be of little value to the thief. This would not work everywhere since every building is not for a specific tenant but would stop 95% of these events. It would only add maybe $20,000 to the construction cost.

Read story at 5:30 Sunday morning. No mention of where crime took place, time, etc. Guess I'll have to go to KSAT for the rest of the story.
