DALTON, Ga. - Two Dalton teenagers, who police claim stole a family members’ car and crashed it in metro Atlanta are safe, police say.
The Dalton Police Department said the girls were found safe overnight and have been returned home to Whitfield County to their families. Police did not say if they are facing charges.
The girls were waiting at Sosebee’s mother’s work place on Monday, waiting to be picked up, the Dalton Police Department says. Instead, they stole a vehicle belonging to one of Sosebee’s relatives, police said.
The car was found by Gwinnett County police.
A witness told police they saw the two girls running from the wrecked car at the intersection of Lee Road and Telida Trail in Snellville. Police say the girls jumped a fence as they ran away.
