SOUTH DAYTONA, Fla. (AP) — A central Florida man is accused of beating an ATM with a hatchet.

South Daytona police say the 30-year-old man faces criminal mischief and burglary to a structure charges following the Sunday incident.

The Daytona Beach News-Journal (http://bit.ly/1DvCqir ) reports the ATM’s camera took at least three images of the man holding a personal check and taking a swing at the machine.

Officers recognized the man from the surveillance photos and arrested him Monday as he rode his bicycle.
