RESIDENTIAL BURGLARY – 1000-Block Saint Charles Ave
On November 30, police were dispatched to the 1000-Block of Saint Charles Ave in response to a residential burglary. The victim explained that she left her apartment around 8:35 AM and when she returned around 11:39 PM, she noticed her front door open. Police observed the print of a shoe or boot on the door and checked the apartment but did not find anyone inside. The victim checked her apartment and the only thing she noticed missing was a keyboard. The victim mentioned an encounter the day prior with a white skinny female with a pixie haircut and a black male (mid 20's) with a small Afro haircut. These two individuals were moving out of an apartment they had sub-let on the same floor as the victim, and the male asked the victim what she had in her briefcase. She told him "gold-mounts." The victim said she works in film and gold-mounts are batteries for the cameras on movie sets. No security cameras were found in proximity to the apartment. Investigators were notified about the incident.
AGGRAVATED ASSAULT – 1000-Block Greenwood Ave
On December 16 at 10:30 PM, police responded to a call about a person struck by a vehicle on the 1000-Block of Greenwood Ave. When police arrived on scene, a Grady ambulance was already providing aid to the victim. The victim said that around 10:00 PM he observed a white male with a bald head back up and hit a parked vehicle in the parking lot. The driver then pulled forward and hit another parked vehicle. The victim said he went over to the driver and confronted him. They then got into an argument and the suspect began to curse at the victim. The suspect then pulled forward at a fast speed and hit the victim where he was standing. The suspect then backed up and hit the victim a second time, before driving out of the parking lot and heading east on Greenwood Ave then north onto N Highland Ave. The victim said his right elbow and his right knee were injured from the impact of the car, but he refused to be transported by ambulance and said he would have someone else take him to the hospital in a personal vehicle.
The victim identified the individual that hit him as the man who puts the boots on vehicles that don't pay for parking in the parking lot. The victim described the suspect's white Jeep and provided police with a Georgia license plate number. Police ran the tag and confirmed the identity of the suspect. Police examined the vehicles that the victim identified as being struck by the suspect. The first vehicle was a black 2021 Volkwagen Atlas with minor damage to the rear driver side bumper. The second vehicle was a beige 2016 Honda Accord with minor damage to the rear passenger side door. Police spoke to the owners of both damaged vehicles, but they had not been in their vehicles or observed the incident. Police identified a camera in the rear of 810 N Highland Ave (Surin of Thailand), but the business was closed at that time so footage could not immediately be recovered.
