Authorities in Austin, Texas, arrested a man for allegedly jackpotting a credit union ATM in Mountain Iron, Minnesota. The incident was discovered in February 2026, when the St. Louis County Sheriff's Office discovered cash had been dispensed illegally from the ATM, according to a report by Northern News Now.

He allegedly installed a device on the ATM to get it to dispense the cash. When a deputy reviewed the video footage, he realized he had assisted the suspect earlier that day when his car was stuck in a ditch.

He is being charged with felony theft.
