Burglars, beware. Big Brother — or at least a fancy surveillance system — is watching.
Atlantans are fighting back against break-ins by publicizing videos of the culprits. The latest: A brief snippet of a guy who attempted to break into an Adair Park home using two shovels. The man is believed to be responsible for a dozen burglaries in the neighborhood.
Last month, homeowners in Grant Park and East Atlanta caught their break-ins on camera. Two days after the videos went viral, six suspects believed to be involved in at least one of the burglaries were arrested — and police recovered eight stolen flat-screen televisions, three laptop computers and several digital cameras.
