A man caught on camera taking a hammer to a cash machine has been sentenced to six months probation.

Stephen Michael Campbell, 39, must also pay $22,492.14 restitution for the early-morning December 7 incident at a bank at Pine Centre mall.

Campbell turned himself into police later the same day after RCMP released the images. He later pleaded guilty to mischief over $5,000.

No cash was taken but the machine was extensively damaged.

Campbell was issued the term Thursday in Prince George provincial court.
