“We, as a police department and law enforcement community, will not allow this city to be held hostage by fear and intimidation through acts of fire,” Chief Schierbaum stated during the press conference. “While we have made one arrest, we anticipate making further arrests in the near future.”
Following the patrol car fire in Lakewood Heights, the Atlanta Police Department identified a person of interest and obtained a search warrant for a residence located at 501 Harper Road SE.
