Ferrari stolen from Buckhead parking garage; person of interest sought
An unlocked luxury sports car was stolen Sunday morning from a Buckhead parking garage.
Surveillance video from a high-rise condo building on East Paces Ferry Road shows the black Ferrari being driven slowly out of the covered garage. While police have not confirmed the model or its value, the Italian sports car manufacturer’s entry-level models carry a $200,000 price tag.
The video, obtained by Channel 2 Action News, also shows a door attendant confront a man in a red hooded sweatshirt and track pants moments before the theft. Atlanta police said he is wanted for questioning as he is considered a person of interest in the case.
According to police, the owner’s brother first reported the theft around 6:30 a.m. Officers later spoke with the owner, who said his key fob was missing. He reported a handgun and $300 were stolen along with his Ferrari, police spokesman Investigator James White said.
Anyone who spots the vehicle is asked to call Atlanta police. Tipsters can remain anonymous, and be eligible for rewards of up to $2,000, by contacting Crime Stoppers Atlanta at 404-577-8477, texting information to 274637 or visiting the Crime Stoppers website.
