‘Kids’ haul television, gun from southeast Atlanta home
Baby-faced burglars have spooked a southeast Atlanta neighborhood where they hauled off a television while one waved a gun.
“Kids” is how homeowner Zach Goossen described the trio. They were captured on his security cameras from several angles, with good views of their faces.
"You have to wonder, did they just leave school an hour before that or something," Goosen told Channel 2 Action News. Police told the news outlet that they have a suspect in custody, warrants for two others and suspicions about a fourth person whom they are trying to identify.
The burglars also took a computer and a gun.
Neighbor Jennifer Murray said the Thursday break in has the neighborhood along Flat Shoals Avenue on edge.
“You wonder what’s going on with these kids that they are out during the day running around breaking into houses,” she said.
