Forget robbing the bank. These days, the big money is in beauty salons and their stash of human hair extensions.
The most recent heist occurred Tuesday when thieves crashed a Jeep into Angie's Beauty Supplies in Atlanta. Video showed the culprits head straight for the shop’s most expensive fake tresses.
“The suspects took an undetermined amount of hair extensions and other items prior to leaving the store,” said Atlanta Police Officer Kim Jones. The thieves left the Jeep in the store.

But they made off with the hair extensions.
Were they white?
Where does one fence hot hair?..........
Were they bald?......
In Atlanta ? Hair extensions ? My guess is that they were cornrows.
Priorities.
Easily sold on ebay, craig’s list, etc.
Cost is about $100 each for the good stuff, thieves get several hundred at each beauty supply smash and grab.
Not a bad payoff for 10 minutes work.
Fence them to another salon that does extensions. In Atlanta you could throw a rock and hit one.
I believe this is the third robbery like this in Atlanta in recent months. If the news report on the radio was correct the thieves in one of them got away with about $50,000 in merchandise.
Where was Biden at the time?
