A truck rolled down a hill and crashed into cars belonging to employees of Thomasville Heights Elementary School, Atlanta police said.

“The stolen truck was put in gear and rolled down a hill as a Zone 3 officer was turning into the complex,” police Officer Kim Jones told Channel 2 Action News in an emailed statement. “It barely missed his vehicle and traveled across the road striking employee vehicles at Thomasville Elementary. There is anti-APD graffiti inside the vehicle.”

Thomasville Heights Elementary is in southeast Atlanta at 1820 Henry Thomas Dr.
