Rothesay Regional Police have arrested three Montreal men after they attempted to steal a pin pad from a business.
The business called police as the result of a province-wide alert.
Officers responded at 4 this morning and the men were in a late model rental car on Highway 119 in Quispamsis.
All three were before a judge in Hampton today charged with attempting to commit the idictable offense of theft.
The men will remain in custody until bail hearing on Thursday morning in Sussex.
Police tell us similar complaints are being investigated in other areas and more charges are expected.
