COBB COUNTY, Ga. \u2014 Thieves broke through the wall of an abandoned store to steal sneakers at Town Center Mall in Georgia.<\/p>\n
Police say they\u2019ve committed similar crimes in other states.<\/p>\n
It was an elaborate crime, like something out of a movie, done hours after the mall closed, police told Action News Jax\u2019s Atlanta station, WSB-TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n Police say a Foot Locker employee saw shoeboxes scattered everywhere in the store then saw a hole in the wall of the back of the stockroom. The hole leads to an abandoned Sears that police say the suspects used to get inside.<\/p>\n Police identified two of the three suspects accused of breaking into the mall last summer. They said they stole $7,000 worth of sneakers.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s disappointing that these kind of things can happen right now,\u201d said mall employee Nick Carilli. \u201cWe\u2019d love to see some change because we love this mall.\u201d<\/p>\n Police say the suspects are accused of committing similar crimes in other jurisdictions.<\/p>\n They say Kolbe Reeves was one of the suspects in a smash-and-grab in Albany, Georgia.<\/p>\n Police say Tyrone Howard is one of three suspects tied to a $1 million organized shoe theft ring, including a burglary at a mall in Florida where police say the suspects broke in through the roof.<\/p>\n Warrants have been issued for Reeves and Howard here in cobb. They live in Florida.<\/p>\n >>> STREAM ACTION NEWS JAX LIVE <<<<\/a><\/p>\n [DOWNLOAD: Free Action News Jax app for alerts as news breaks<\/a>]<\/p>\n [SIGN UP: Action News Jax Daily Headlines Newsletter<\/a>] <\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to download the free Action News Jax news and weather apps, click here<\/a> to download the Action News Jax Now app for your smart TV and click here<\/a> to stream Action News Jax live.<\/p>\n Action News Jax Top Stories<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"COBB COUNTY, Ga. \u2014 Thieves broke through the wall of an abandoned store to steal sneakers at Town…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":153023,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[982,7849,73817,28,1853,19790,969,116,118,117,634,73819,73820,73818,135,73816,19215],"class_list":["post-153022","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville","tag-action_news","tag-atlanta","tag-colby_reeves","tag-florida","tag-georgia","tag-howard","tag-jack","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-headlines","tag-jacksonville-news","tag-local","tag-martin_county_sheriffs_office","tag-nike","tag-reeves","tag-tampa","tag-tyrone_howard","tag-wawa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153022","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=153022"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/153022\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/153023"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=153022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=153022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=153022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
