More than 300 cars stolen from Atlanta’s airport this year | Behind the Investigation

Thieves are targeting airport parking lots, stealing mostly high-end sports cars and pick-up trucks, some of which are later used in other crimes.

Car thefts from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport have more than tripled since last year, according to statistics released by the Atlanta Police Department. Through October 2024, 301 cars were stolen, compared with 95 for all of last year.
