APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A fifth suspect was sentenced to one year in jail in connection with the theft of more than $38,000 from a Kaukauna ATM.
Andres Escobar-Rodriguez, 31, was previously convicted of theft of movable property for the July 5, 2024, incident at the Unison Credit Union, 1000 W. Hyland Avenue.
He must also help pay restitution, court records show. The sentencing hearing was Monday.
Escobar-Rodriguez was one of six people charged for the theft. The others:
- Yeniaker Avila-Acevedo was sentenced to three months in jail
- Jesse Duque-Escobar was sentenced to a year in jail
- Manuel Pina-Gonzalez was sentenced to a year in jail
- Adonay Dalis-Ramirez was sentenced to a year in jail
- Johamnel Ortiz-Sanchez has a plea hearing July 7
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.
Although the criminal complaint says about $38,000 was stolen, a restitution request for $45,174.58 has been submitted, court records show.
