On January 7, 2023, at around 10:20 p.m., an off-duty Atlanta police officer who was working neighborhood patrol was alerted to a suspicious male seen entering unoccupied vehicles and also pulling on multiple door handles in the 200 block of Camden Rd NE and 200 block of Brighton Rd NE.

The officer was able to spot the male entering a parking deck located at 2001 Peachtree Rd NE. The officer requested additional units to his location as he followed behind the male. Once he got closer to the parking deck, the officer observed the male standing next to a parked vehicle.
