Officers in Daybrook arrested two men after the vehicle they were driving in had potential links to ATM thefts in the Nottingham area.
The vehicle was pulled over on Saturday (3) in Sherbrook Road and two men were found inside.
In the front passenger footwell, a number of items were recovered designed to commit ATM theft.
This included a cash trapping device and specialist sticky tape, which prevents cash from being deposited from an ATM once the user has put in their card details.
The user thinks the cash machine is faulty and then the offender comes back to remove the device and the cash inside it.
They also found craft knives and screw drivers inside the vehicle, which were also seized.
Nottinghamshire Police said they are aware of a number of ATM thefts in and around the Nottingham area and were suspicious of the vehicle which alerted their attention in Valley Road.
They followed the vehicle and pulled it over in Daybrook where they arrested two men.
Two men, aged 48 and 35, have been arrested on suspicion of a number of offences including going equip to steal and driving without a licence.
A wider investigation is now underway to determine the extent of this operation.
