Officers got a call Thursday, Jan. 18, about a burglary on Riverview Drive in Cobb County, police said in a Jan. 23 news release.

Cobb County investigators said the crew had been tied to multiple burglaries in Indiana and Virginia that topped $500,000 in losses. They were also suspected in a burglary in Duluth, Georgia, that led to a $70,000 loss.

The group was believed to be working out of hotels on Franklin Gateway in Marietta, according to police. Officers located and arrested the suspects at a Hampton Inn and found nearly $30,000.

The crew was also caught with various gift cards, according to police.

Authorities didn’t say how many suspects were involved but said all were booked into the Cobb County Jail.
