**Suspect Arrested in Atlanta Residential Burglary Incident**

On October 9th, 2024, at approximately 9:44 AM, Atlanta Police responded to a report of a residential burglary on Biscayne Drive NW. The homeowner reported to 911 after observing a male suspect breaking into the home and stealing a firearm, as captured on surveillance footage.

Responding officers received a description of the suspect and soon arrived at the scene. They located a male matching the description, who fled on foot through an adjacent apartment complex. The suspect attempted to evade capture by climbing a tall fence but was apprehended by the officers shortly after.

Notably, the suspect, later identified as 33-year-old Kenneth Whack, was found wearing multi-colored socks on his hands in an apparent attempt to conceal his identity. Officers were able to recover the stolen firearm, which Whack had attempted to hide under a bush.

Kenneth Whack has been charged with several offenses, including Burglary (1st Degree), Criminal Trespass/Damage to Property, Possession of a Firearm During the Commission of a Felony, and Obstruction of Law Enforcement Officers. He was transported to the Fulton County Jail for processing.

All details regarding the arrest are public information. It is important to note that an arrest does not imply conviction; all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
