  • Sandy Springs Police: "Yesterday, SSPD officers received multiple 911 calls in regards to passing motorists observing what they believed to be a large amount of ammo spread across the roadway at Hammond Dr and Peachtree Dunwoody Rd. Officers responded quickly to the area and were able to successfully collect all of the ammo from out of the street." (Sandy Springs Police via Facebook)
