Burglary 865 N. Highland Av
On Saturday, May 30, police responded to an alarm call at 865 N.
Highland Ave NE (CVS Pharmacy). Upon arrival, officers discovered the front glass
doors shattered out. Police entered and
cleared the building at 7:20 AM and discovered the interior pharmacy door pried
open and the rear door open. The
pharmacy appeared to have been rummaged through. Police secured the back door and contacted
the store operators who were already aware and en route.
Attempted Residential Burglary 700-Block Frederica St NE (ARREST
MADE)
On June 16, shortly after midnight multiple officers responded to
a prowler call on the 700 block of Frederica St. A second call was reported in the same
location advising a person may have been shot, laying under a silver Nissan
Altima. Two officers located the suspect
under the vehicle (who had not been shot) while two officers spoke to the
victim who called about the prowler.
The victim had recently arrived at home and was sitting on his
couch talking to his girlfriend, when he observed a shadow outside the window
going up the steps to his door. The
victim immediately observed the door handle on the front door moving, as the
person outside attempted to break in.
The victim approached the door and told the male suspect to leave. The suspect still attempted to take a bicycle
that was left on the porch as he was walking away.
The victim was armed with his gun and warned the suspect that he
had a gun, yelling “gun, gun, gun” and shot a round into the air to scare the
suspect, at which point the suspect took off running and fell down multiple
steps. The victim grabbed his bicycle
and ran back into the house to call 911.
The victim’s 9-year-old daughter was also inside the house. Police spoke to neighbors who heard the
shouting and gunshot and saw the suspect laying under the vehicle where he was
discovered by police. The victim
positively identified the suspect as the person who attempted to break into his
home. The suspect was subsequently
identified as Kavan Whiteside, and he was found in possession of a package
belonging to another possible victim.
Mr. Whiteside had an outstanding warrant out of the City of Atlanta for
larceny. He was placed into custody and
charged with CRIMINAL ATTEMPT TO COMMIT BURGLARY OCGA 16-4-1 and transported to
Grady Hospital due to some ankle pain complaints.
If
you see someone or something suspicious, please report it to the police. When driving or out walking keep an eye out in
the neighborhood, what you see and report just might prevent a crime.
Reminder: All members call 911 first if you see a crime
in progress or a suspicious person or activity, and then call the Virginia
Highland Security Patrol Phone. The
phone number is 770-310-0871.
