Thief crashes SUV through front of Buckhead business during break-in
SUMMARY: In Buckhead, a business experienced a wild break-in when a suspect crashed an SUV through its front. This incident at Price Tag ATL marks the second break-in since the store opened in June. Last month, multiple suspects also broke in, prompting the owner to enhance security and reinforce the building. Despite these precautions, on Tuesday, a suspect managed to break through the wall again. The owner expressed disbelief at the lengths to which criminals go, saying it’s hard to understand why anyone would drive through a brick wall for just a few stolen items.
Video shows an SUV careening backwards into Price Tag ATL on Tuesday morning. It’s the second time the store has been targeted in recent weeks.
