Atlanta Police are looking for a man in black who while brandishing an automatic weapon stole $1 from two men.
City surveillance cameras captured the robbery near Piedmont and 10th Streets, but thus far have been unable to identify the man wearing a black hat.
"A guy jumped out of the back seat with an AK-47, and he had it on my chest and I said hold up - wait a minute," said Roy Dwiggins who was talking to his buddy Yancey Wilson when the incident happened.
Police have located the SUV the crew was driving, a 1999 Mercury Mountaineer, and its owner.
"Her name is Turquoise Holman and she's a resident of DeKalb County," said Detective Vince Velazquez. "She cannot provide any reasonable explanation why her vehicle was missing and she did not report it as stolen."
Dwiggins and Wilson described their assailant to a police sketch artist. Authorities hope the picture and video will lead someone to call them.
