Response officers in Doncaster tracked down and arrested a robber just 32 minutes after receiving a report of an attack at a cashpoint in the city centre.
South Yorkshire Police's CCTV control room were able to find footage of the robbery, which took place at an ATM in St Sepulchre Gate, and quickly identify Louis Robson as the offender.
Robson targeted his victim by following him to the cashpoint before attacking him after he had inserted his card into the machine.
