ATLANTA — A mother-to-be said thieves got away with all of her unborn child’s gifts.
Chiquita Pitts is 8 months pregnant with a little boy whom she plans to name Carter. She told Channel 2's Liz Artz that friends and family members came together Saturday at a South West Atlanta venue off Nelson Street to throw a baby shower.
“High chairs to car seats and strollers," Pitts said were among the gifts she received.
“Tons of diapers,"Pitts said.
Within minutes of loading everything into her boyfriend's car, she told Artz, it was gone.
“My son has nothing. He has nothing," Pitts said.
She told Artz two men, who were driving a dark-colored Kia Sportage, stole it all.
“The guy was just pulling stuff from his car to his car. He was just pulling stuff," she said.

Pitts gave Artz a picture of the damage to their car. She said the thieves were able to lift the chrome and jimmy the locks.
“They got bouncers, um, bottle warmers, bottles, clothes, shoes -- they took everything," Pitts said.
She said everything she needed to give Carter a good start in life was taken. According to the police report, investigators dusted the car for fingerprints.
There were no cameras that captured images of the suspects, but Pitts told police she got a good look at one of the men.
“I got a good look at the passenger -- light-skinned short, stubby." Pitts said. "I just want my baby stuff back, even if we don't get all of it. I just want something."
Pitts has set up a GoFundMe due to the overwhelming support from Channel 2 Action News viewers.
