Alpharetta police are investigating a Feb. 12 burglary of the T Mobile store on North Point Parkway in which thieves stole 70 cell phones worth roughly $18,000.
According to Alpharetta police, the store's alarm was activated a few minutes before 1:15 a.m. Officers were at the store in two minutes and found the front glass door shattered.
Investigation revealed two interior doors were forced open by a sledge hammer, said authorities.
The burglary is under investigation by the Criminal Investigation Division.
The Alpharetta Department of Public Safety reminds business owners to remain vigilant, especially while opening and closing their businesses. With the economy being one factor, the department has seen an increase in the "smash and grab" type incidents in the metro Atlanta area.
