Atlanta police say a long-running investigation into larcenies from vehicles across the city led to a major search warrant execution on the city’s west side, ending with multiple arrests, dozens of weapons recovered, and children found living inside the apartment.
On Jan. 15, the Atlanta Police Department’s Larceny from Auto (LFA) Unit executed a search warrant at an apartment complex on Fairburn Road. Body camera video shows officers moving in to secure the apartment as part of what APD called a coordinated, multi-unit operation.
According to APD, investigators recovered a large amount of stolen property inside the apartment, including stolen police equipment. Officers also seized 11 guns, three tasers, three gun switches, nearly 11 ounces of MDMA and 87 grams of marijuana.
