Woman mugged inside Buckhead store

ATLANTA,None — An Atlanta woman said a man followed her into a Buckhead store Saturday afternoon, grabbed her cell phone and ran.

Christian Rapp said she had just entered the Ulta store located at the Buckhead Loop when a man “basically attacked” her.

“One man passed me, but I didn’t notice him.  He came back, grabbed my phone…pretty much knocking me over.  He took my phone and ran,” said Rapp.

Rapp said she chased the man to the Buckhead MARTA station where he escaped with two other men.

Store surveillance footage shows the entire incident, Rapp said.

“I’ve lived here for almost three years and I’ve never had anything like that happen to me.  I never thought about getting out of my car while talking on the phone…that someone would attack me for an iPhone,” said Rapp.

There was no word on any arrests.
