Tempe detectives say a high-dollar ATM caper that started with a hole in a nail salon roof has ended with a suspect in handcuffs, after DNA evidence allegedly tied him to a burglary that cleaned out a Wells Fargo machine of more than $155,000 in October 2024. Investigators say the burglar sliced into the salon roof near Baseline Road and S. Hardy Drive, cut through a wall into the ATM service room, then fired up a cutting torch to crack open the machine, leaving about $61,000 in damage behind.
