ATLANTA -- Police say a group of kids went to a Buckhead Target on scooters, shouting expletives at customers.

The scary moment for shoppers happened Tuesday at the Target near Phipps Plaza.

No one was hurt and nothing was stolen from the store. However, it gave some shoppers quite the scare.

Police say this behavior is not acceptable

"To have a crew running through a store like that and intimidating everyone in there, and I think that's why even though the actual charge at the end of it all might not be that serious, just the act and the way it all took place is the reason why for us it is very serious," said Atlanta Police Maj. Barry Shaw.

APD is working with Target security to identify the suspects. Police say the could face disorderly conduct charges if they are able to track them down.
