APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – The last of six suspects charged in the theft of $38,000 from a Kaukauna ATM was ordered Thursday to stand trial.
Johamnel Ortiz-Sanchez, 39, waived a preliminary hearing on two counts, including theft of moveable property. He returns to court Dec. 17 for an arraignment.
Ortiz-Sanchez is one of six people charged in the case. The status for the others is as follows:
Yeniaker Avila-Acevedo was convicted and served a three-month jail sentence.
Manuel Pina-Gonzalez has pre-trial conference Dec. 12.
Andres Escobar-Rodriguez has a pre-trial conference Jan. 9.
Adonay Dalis-Ramirez has a pre-trial conference Jan. 9.
Jesse Duque-Escobar has a trial scheduled for March 17.
Security video captured images of several people in two vehicles “repeatedly accessing the ATM and manipulating it, then removing a large amount of cash, approximately $38,000.00,” the complaint states. The thieves had staged in a nearby parking lot, then made 48 trips to the ATM. The credit union suspected the thieves had a master key, a small gold key with a rounded base and teeth on both sides. Police later pulled over two vehicles seen on the video, and arrested the six, the criminal complaint states.
All of the suspects had various forms of Venezuelan identification.
