The theft took place from a property in the Concession Road area of Cullaville.

Police believe the vehicles were stolen sometime between 2.30pm on Friday 15th and 2.40am on Saturday 16th November, and then used in an attack on an ATM machine across the border in Co Louth, at Dunleer.

The low loader was recovered at the scene and the tractor at Hackballscross.

Both have since been returned to their respective owners.
