You've heard of road rage, now a different kind of temper tantrum that caused thousands of dollars in damage to an Omaha bank's automatic teller machine.
The helmet and shades hid the anger in his eyes, but clearly frustration built for a customer as an ATM kept spitting out his bank card.
"Right there you can see he hits the ATM, the screen shakes,” said Great Western banker Bryon Tenski, who added this is the second time this year that this particular ATM has been used a punching bag.
“It's not the ATM’s fault that you couldn't get the money or your card didn't work so don't abuse our ATM,” said Tenski.
The angry outburst caused $3,000 damage to the glass and electronic screen so the bank would like to identify the slugger. "We're hoping we can get some money recovered or at least get him prosecuted,” said Tenski.
The ATM had double pane glass in the front and judging by the shattered glass all the way through, you'd wonder if the angry card holder didn't break his hand in this fit of ATM rage.
“No, I wouldn't get that mad, but I could see how some could do it, especially nowadays it's a now thing, you want your money now,” said bank customer Rick Pedersen. “They get frustrated, can't get their money out, ATM rage, there you go."
To identify ATM vandalism another camera has been added at the 48th and L Great Western branch.
Automatic teller machines are impersonal bankers and though they have a screen instead of a face, you will be prosecuted for hitting one in a fit of rage. "Count to 10, take some deep breaths, jump around, whatever you got to do to control your anger," said Tenski.
The ATM card probably had a bad magnetic strip so the account number and identity didn't register. That's why Great Western Bank would like anyone who recognizes the angry customer from the security camera video to call 952-6000. He was on a motorcycle.
