Atlanta police are looking for multiple suspects after 19 vehicles were broken into in a Midtown residential area earlier this month.

The break-ins, which occurred in the early morning hours of July 17 in the 400 block of 5th Street, were captured on home security cameras, a news release states.

All of the crimes happened in just 4 minutes, police said in the description of the footage posted to YouTube. The video appears to show about four suspects.
