Authorities are on the hunt for a man accused of a credit union break-in that took place at the Credit Union of Atlanta. The incident, occurring within the shadows of Sunday night's repose, saw the suspect forcibly entering the building and absconding with a laptop and two computer monitors, as reported by FOX 5 Atlanta.
Atlanta Police responded to the scene on Monday morning after staff reported the burglary. The credit union, ensconced on Metropolitan Parkway, became a site of investigation when, according to the same source, surveillance footage captured images of a man in a break room, brandishing a knife to pry open file cabinets and drawers. The suspect, who stole a laptop, was seen leaving with the stolen items in tow.
To apprehend the individual responsible, the Atlanta Police Department is offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment. They urge anyone with knowledge of the crime or the whereabouts of the stolen goods to come forward and contribute to the pursuit of justice.
For those possessing any details that might illuminate the paths leading to the suspect, anonymous tips are welcome. They can be delivered via a phone call to the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tipline at (404) 577-8477, or electronically submitted through their website, as 11Alive echoes the police request. Additionally, texts can be sent to the code CSGA containing potentially valuable information that might tilt the scales of this investigation towards closure.
