News Police find interesting items during Ga. Tech robbery arrest

Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Mon, Jul 13, 2009 at 4:48 PM

From the AJC's report that Atlanta Police arrested three males this morning for an attempted robbery near Georgia Tech:

Police found a loaded AK-47, body armor and a ski mask inside the suspects’ vehicle, Redmond said.

Well then! Is it just me, or are there a lot of AK-47s floating around Atlanta?

Gun, armor & ski mask? Perhaps someone's training for the biathlon!

AK-47s or their equivalent are not hard to find at all. I know lots of people that have them. You can buy them online, legit.
