The door into the building was locked from the outside, so police believe the burglars came in through the ceiling then opened a door and brought in the cutting equipment, including a gas cutting torch to open the steel safe.
Police believe several people scouted the ATM drop patterns then hid in the building after hours.
Authorities believe it took the thieves a while to complete the job between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m.
