Thomaston police in Atlanta, Georgia, are currently conducting an investigation into the theft of two Ford Mustang cars from the Southern Ford of Thomaston dealership. The stolen vehicles, a Ford Mustang GT500 Heritage and a blue Ford Mustang GT500, have a combined value of nearly $200,000. The General Manager of the dealership, Chip Richardson, expressed the uniqueness and rarity of the stolen Heritage model, as it was a limited edition with less than a thousand produced and fully certified. The break-in occurred overnight on Friday, where the thieves not only took the cars but also obtained keys to numerous other vehicles on the lot. Chief Mike Richardson stated that the criminals seemed knowledgeable and targeted in their actions, suggesting that the stolen vehicles were not intended for joyriding but rather for a specific purpose. The security cameras were disabled during the incident. The dealership staff expressed their disappointment as such incidents are uncommon in their small country town. Thomaston Police are urging anyone with information to come forward and have offered a $1,000 reward for any leads that result in an arrest.
