A witness fired shots at some burglars at a boutique in Atlanta Tuesday morning, police said.

Police said the burglars broke out a window at the Urban Fusion boutique on Peters Street around 4 a.m.

While the burglars were trying to carry out merchandise, a person living in an apartment across the street saw them and began firing shots.

The men dropped the merchandise and ran away, police said.

Police haven’t said who the shooter was.

Officers haven’t said if they believe the men were part of the so-called “Blue Jean Bandits”, a group that’s been targeting high-end boutiques around the Atlanta area over the past few months.
