Thieves failed in an elaborate bid to steal money from a cash point after using a silver Alfa Romeo in an apparent ram raid.

Detectives are appealing for witnesses following a ram raid, on Saturday between 2.45am and 3.15am on Whitehills Crescent, outside the Post Office.

A police spokesman said: “A silver Alfa Romeo was used to reverse into a cash machine outside the Post Office.

“The offenders failed to get access to the cash machine and are believed to have left the scene in a black Audi.”

Witnesses can call Northamptonshire Police on 101, alternatively information can be given anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111

A police spokesman said: “A silver Alfa Romeo was used to reverse into a cash machine outside the Post Office,At first our officers on the scene were unsure of the colour since all that was left of the Alfa was a pile of rust and 4 tyres,that's how we knew it was an Alfa but our forensics later reported that it was originally silver".

I had an Alfa once.
Rather than scrap it i just swept it up one day and put it in the bin.

I'm surprised the Alpha lasted long enough to actually reverse into the PO
