July 8th 2023.
On July 3, an unidentified man attempted to rob an Atlanta nail salon. The incident was captured on surveillance video, which showed the man bursting into the salon with his hand inside a bag that resembled a weapon. He screamed at the women inside to hand over all of their valuables and yelled, “Everybody get down! Give me your money! Give me your money!”
It seemed as though none of the patrons in the salon were intimidated by the man. In fact, only one person responded to his demands, and she merely handed over her cell phone. After obtaining the cell phone, the man threatened the other patrons, demanding cash. He even approached a male employee and demanded something from him directly. However, the employee simply answered the phone ringing behind the counter and walked away.
With no one paying attention to him, the man quickly gave up on his attempted robbery and left. Authorities said the suspect fled the scene in a silver sedan. There’s currently up to a $2,000 reward for any tips that lead to the arrest and indictment of the man in the video from Crime Stoppers. The man was shown wearing a blue hat, sunglasses, and blue pants when he walked into the salon.
Following the viral CCTV footage, Atlanta police advised against behaving as the people in the salon did. Although staying calm is recommended, the Atlanta police suggest complying with the demands of someone trying to rob you. Giving away your valuables is the best way to handle a potentially dangerous robbery.
