ATLANTA — Traffic is snarled at a busy Midtown exit from the Downtown Connector after a police chase ended in a crash.
According to Atlanta Police, officers were responding to an armed robbery at a Verizon Wireless store near the intersection of Peachtree Street and Deering Road.
Police said two men got away in a gray Audi, which police quickly spotted. Officers began to chase the car, but the pursuit ended shortly after near 14th Street and the entrance to I-75/85.
Officers arrested the two suspects - 22-year-old Davon J. Daniels, and another 14-year-old.
Atlanta Police later linked the two and the same Audi to a second armed robbery that happened at another Verizon Wireless store off Piedmont Road, near Lindberg Plaza.
