ICYMI: Burglars Hit Buckhead Atlanta Store

Atlanta police are searching for more than a dozen suspects who stole tens of thousands of dollars worth of handbags from an upscale store in Buckhead Atlanta.

According to a police report, officers responded to a robbery in progress call at the Christian Louboutin store at 30165 Peachtree St. on Wednesday morning and learned from Buckhead Atlanta security that some $60,000 worth of merchandise had been stolen from the store.

Security personnel told police that a large rock had been used to smash the window of the store, at which time around 15 black males came in and stole 20 to 30 handbags and shoes on display while ignoring security personnel’s orders to stop. The group fled in five vehicles, one of which was spotted by police as it fled the scene.

One of the vehicles used in the burglary, a black Dodge Challenger, was found abandoned nearby, damaged due to being driven so hard.

The other vehicles believed to be involved in the burglary were a silver Ford Edge, a gray Hyundai Sonata, a silver Ford Equinox, and a silver Cadillac.
