i just heard about this on the way to work! I have family and friend and west cobb and am headed there later, but you guys watch it! here is the article from the AJC this morning http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/cobb/stories/2007/12/18/robbery_1219.html Armed robbers sought in west Cobb By CHRISTIAN BOONE The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 12/18/07 Cobb County police are searching for two men behind a series of armed robberies in west Cobb in which victims have been followed to a residence. Two people are known to have been victimized by the thieves, said Cobb Police Sgt. Dana Pierce. The men may also be involved in a third armed robbery, all of which occurred in the western part of the county between the sixth and ninth of December, Pierce said. "It looks like they've graduated from retail robberies to personal robberies," he said. The men have followed a similar pattern, following their victims to a residence, pulling up beside them and brandishing a gun. The men proceeded to use the stolen credit cards at stores along Dallas Highway. The men were last seen driving a light-colored, 2000 model Ford Escort, Pierce said.
Weird, I'm not sure if it that car or not, but over the weekend, someone followed me all the way to my home. I know they weren't neighbors, so i just kept driving until they turned away.
I've had similar incidents too. One recent one was a little different though. I had an unmarked white van pull into my neighborhood a couple months ago. I knew they didn't live there so I followed it past my house. She (they? I couldn't see inside the back of the van) parked in a cul-de-sac and didn't get out. So I asked if they were looking for someone/place in particular. She said "no" and it was obvious she didn't want me around. I waited for a little bit and she left the subdivision with me following her to the entrance. "Crime Watch" community FTW.
people are crazy these days...totally ridiculous...hopefully we can all have a fun and safe holiday! be careful out there folks!
Mossburg shorty Tactical 12GA here :wavey: Nothing says "don't invade my home" like a boom stick. I got followed home and had people waiting for me when i got there. Some crazy woman followed me around atlanta for over an hour for merging into her lane when the two southbound lanes became one. That stuff is scary when it happens to you and the Atlanta Police don't pick up 911 for 25+ minutes (and when they do, all they say is "go towards a populated area and get out of your car..retarded) :eek4:
