ICYMI: Tech Students Robbed at Apartment

Atlanta police are looking for two men they believe robbed a pair of Georgia Tech students at gunpoint inside their apartment on Monday morning.

A police report states that the two students were inside their dwelling at the Centennial Place Apartments on Lovejoy Street at approximately 2:57 a.m. Monday when two black males, one carrying a handgun, came through their open door and tied them up with socks. Once the students were bound, the suspects stole the students’ electronic devices and $120. The door to the apartment was open because the apartments’ air conditioning unit was not operating, according to the report.

A campus alert from Georgia Tech describes the first suspect as a black male, 20-30 years old, 5’7” tall, 190 pounds, with short hair. He was wearing a black shirt, gray jeans, and silver necklaces. He possibly has a tattoo on his face.

The second suspect is described as a black male, 30-40 years old, 6’2” tall, 200 pounds. He was last seen wearing a yellow collared shirt, black undershirt, black pants, and a black baseball hat. He was armed with gray handgun with an orange barrel.

Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Crime Stoppers Greater Atlanta by calling 404-577-TIPS (8477), texting “CSA Tip” to CRIMES (274637), or by submitting a tip online. All tips can be made anonymously.
