2 people arrested in connection with laptop theft

Atlanta Police have arrested two people in connection with the theft of a laptop at a coffee house on Tuesday.

Officer John Chafee tells WSB it happened at the Starbucks on Moreland Avenue.

"When the officer arrived, he learned from the victim that he'd been sitting inside the Starbucks at a table when a male came in, grabbed his laptop, and ran out of the store," said Chafee.

Chafee says the victim saw what kind of car that the suspected thief and another man got into and police arrested the 19 and 29-year-olds a short time later.

The laptop was recovered and now police are trying to determine if the two are responsible for similar thefts that have occurred in the area.

"They're similar crimes but I couldn't say for sure if these guys are involved in that or not," said Chafee.
