Seven suspects are still on the loose, and police are looking for information regarding the robbery.
Police say 40 seconds was all it took for a group of alleged robbers to make off with more than $100,000 in stolen clothing.
It happened earlier this month at the Moda 404 Men’s Boutique on Peachtree Road NE in Buckhead. The shop is so exclusive that customers have to be buzzed in to get inside, but police say that didn’t stop the group of suspects from pulling off the take-over robbery.
Surveillance video captured the incident in great detail. At around 8:30 p.m. on April 6, police say a black-colored Dodge Challenger pulled up to the store and one of the suspects was buzzed into the store by a clerk.
The clerk told police that the suspect appeared to be shopping before striking up a conversation about a particular brand of jeans. Meanwhile, a second suspect is let into the business. He can be seen on surveillance video browsing the store with his cell phone out, allegedly using FaceTime to point out items for the thieves to target.
Moments later, the clerk says the first suspect tells him he is heading to the bank to withdraw money to make a purchase. As he exited the business, surveillance video shows him holding open the door for a group of suspects, who rushed into the store and began snatching clothing from the racks. Time stamps from video shows the entire incident took less than a minute.
