Eau Claire Police Investigators have new information regarding the credit card scanner that was found at the US Bank ATM on Golf Rd. Investigation has determined that the same individuals may have placed the scanner at the same ATM at about 12:30PM on Friday, 9/17/2010 and picked it up at 4:20PM the same day. The scanner was placed there again on Saturday, 9/18/2010 but was found by a customer and is now in police custody.
