Delco man gets more than 7 years in prison for using explosives to blow up ATMs in Philly, Del.

A Delaware County man has been sentenced to serve 90 months — or seven-and-a-half years — in prison after pleading guilty to charges that claimed he and two others used explosives to destroy ATMs in Philadelphia and Delaware.

According to law enforcement officials, Cushmir McBride, 25, of Yeadon, was sentenced on Wednesday to serve 90 months in prison after pleading guilty in January to conspiracy to maliciously damage property used in interstate commerce by means of an explosive and other charges.

He has also been sentenced to three years probations and must pay $417,463 in restitution after he set off explosives in ATMs inside a Target, a Wells Fargo bank branch, and Wawa stores between 2020 and 2021.

According to court documents, on Oct. 28, 2020, McBride — along with codefendants Nasser McFall, 25, of Claymont, Del. and Kamar Thompson, 37, of Philadelphia — broke into a Target in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia and set off an explosive device in order to steal money from an ATM inside.
