3 arrested for breaking into 48 vehicles in Peachtree City, Fayetteville

PEACHTREE CITY, Ga. - Three young men were recently arrested in Peachtree City for allegedly breaking into 48 vehicles in Peachtree City and Fayetteville, according to Peachtree City police.

The "rambling rapscallions," as they were described in a social media post, were taken into custody on April 9.

They have been identified as 20-year-old Devin Omar Jackson of Douglas; 19-year-old Kyren Cantrell Antonio Dorsey of Douglas; and 20-year-old Daquan Hardaman of Douglas.

The "tricky trio" was arrested by the Morrow Police Department, who assisted Peachtree City police in the investigation. Investigators were able to track the car to Southlake Mall, which is why Morrow police responded.

Items stolen included several firearms that were left unsecured in vehicles, police say.

"In the car I think they recovered at least four different handguns a lot of credit cards and identifying information from victims more victims things from the Fayetteville victims and property as well," said Lt. Brad Williams with the Peachtree City Police Department.

Williams said it was "some card usage" that allowed authorities to track down and get a picture of the suspect's vehicle. He says typically if a crew comes into the city to break into cars, they're primarily looking for weapons.

"I'd love to remind citizens to not leave your weapons in your car if, for some reason, you have to invest in some type of separate lockable container that attaches to the vehicle," Williams said.
