A Texas man was rescued from inside an ATM after he sent desperate “help me” notes through the receipt slot.
The unnamed contractor became stuck inside the Bank of America ATM in Corpus Christi on Wednesday when he was changing the lock of the room that leads to the machine.

“Apparently he left his cellphone and the swipe card he needed to get out of the room outside in his truck,” Corpus Christi police lieutenant Chris Hooper said, as cited by KXAS.

The man attempted to get help by writing notes reading, “Please help, I’m stuck in here,” and passing them through the receipt slot of the ATM. Some of the notes implored people to call his boss.


According to Hooper, some bank customers assumed the notes were some sort of a prank, but eventually some did call the police, who arrived shortly after and heard a faint voice coming from inside the ATM.

"We come out here, and sure enough we can hear a little voice coming from the machine," Senior Officer Richard Olden told KRISTV. “So we are thinking this is a joke. It's got to be a joke."

The police were able to rescue the man by kicking down the door. He is thought to have been trapped inside for two hours.

“You’ll never see this again in your life, that somebody was stuck in the ATM machine,” Olden said. “It was just crazy.”

Man Trapped Inside Texas A.T.M. for 3 Hours Is Rescued by Police

Just after 2 p.m. Wednesday, a person in Corpus Christi, Tex., had just completed a transaction at a Bank of America A.T.M. when a surprise slid through the receipt slot.

“Please help,” read a handwritten note on a thin strip of paper. “I’m stuck in here, and I don’t have my phone.”

The person, whose age and gender the authorities did not provide, did not know quite what to do. But it so happened that a Corpus Christi police officer was driving by, so the person went a step beyond what other A.T.M. users had been willing to do and flagged down the officer.

The officer, like previous bank patrons, initially thought the note was a joke — some sort of “Candid Camera”-type prank that no one wanted to fall for.

But then the officer approached the A.T.M., and when he listened closely, he could hear a faint sound.

This was how the police came to discover a man who had been trapped for hours inside an A.T.M., said Gena Pena, a spokeswoman for the Corpus Christi Police Department.

“Honestly we can’t say it’s never happened,” Ms. Pena said in an interview on Thursday. “But 95 percent of people will have their phone on them,” she added, and for about three hours, she said, this man did not.

How does one become stuck inside an A.T.M. in the first place? Ms. Pena said it happened this way:

The A.T.M. was affixed to a bank, which was under construction, so no employees were inside. The A.T.M., though, was operational. And somewhere on the site, a door led into what Ms. Pena called an “A.T.M. vault” — a room from which a person can service a teller machine from the inside.

A worker arrived on Wednesday to repair the “locking mechanism” of the room, Ms. Pena said. The door shut behind the worker, and somehow, she said, the man locked himself in.

The worker, whom the police did not identify, had left his phone inside a vehicle. But once he realized that people were using the A.T.M., the man began slipping notes out the receipt slot, a solution Ms. Pena thought was “pretty ingenious.”

Unfortunately for the man, several A.T.M. users who got a note thought they were being pranked and apparently did nothing.

“He was kind of upset,” Ms. Pena said of the contract worker.



Indeed, the man would later tell the police that he had been screaming for help. Something about the room, though, must have muffled the sound, Ms. Pena said.

So there the man remained until, finally, one A.T.M. user took one of the worker’s notes seriously enough to tell the passing police officer. The note instructed its reader to “call my boss” and provided a phone number. Once the authorities did, they reached the man’s supervisor who confirmed he had sent a worker to the site.

Attempts were then made to reach the worker, Ms. Pena said, but unsurprisingly, they were unsuccessful.

The police eventually kicked down the door and gained access to the man. It took about 30 minutes to release him “from captivity, basically,” Ms. Pena said.

No criminal act had been committed, so the police did not file a report, she said, adding that the man was not technically “in distress.”

He was, however, “mortified,” Ms. Pena said. “He just wants it to go away.”

Perhaps as a result, neither the man nor his contracting company wanted to be interviewed, Ms. Pena said. The police would not provide any information about the man or the contracting company.

The police also did not name the bank involved or provide the contents of the note the A.T.M. user received. However video footage released by KRIS-TV in Corpus Christi showed those details, and Ms. Pena confirmed that the footage was accurate.

The contractor “didn’t think this was going to happen, obviously,” Ms. Pena said. “I feel bad for him.”

A Texas man who became trapped inside an ATM slipped notes to customers via the receipt slot pleading for them to help him escape, police said on Thursday.

The Corpus Christi police lieutenant Chris Hooper said the contractor became stuck on Wednesday when he was changing the lock to a Bank of America room that leads to the ATM.

“Apparently he left his cellphone and the swipe card he needed to get out of the room outside in his truck,” Hooper said.

The contractor then passed notes through the ATM receipt slot to customers retrieving cash, imploring them to call his boss. One read: “Please help. I’m stuck in here.”

Some customers appeared to dismiss the notes as a prank, Hooper said. But one called police, who detected a faint voice coming from inside the ATM. An officer kicked in the door to the room and freed the man, whose name was not released.

“Everyone is OK but you will never see this in your life, that somebody was stuck in the ATM,” Richard Olden, a police senior officer, told KRIS-TV. “It was just crazy.”

He is the repair guy then he should know how the alarms inside ATM works, he should be able to trigger ATM alarm for mata to come and free him (with guns pointing).

I have got my ATM card stuck inside 2 times, once was a crazy power failure went I draw money the ATM blacked out! No Candid Camera for that unfortunately. I had to wait for card to be mailed to me. Another time I actually sticked in a wrong ATM card (OUB for UOB) and entered the other card's PIN repeatedly. Also wasted time to get my card back. Pissed.

Imagine if the 24Hr ATM lobby door some how failed to open and got your ass stuck inside, you can only eat cash and await for rescue. You will be even more pissed. When stuck inside the ATM glass room you are no better than the showcase prostitutes:
