Vehicle thefts in East Atlanta and throughout Zone 6 are running at an extremely high rate over the past two months. Major Webster has confirmed that approximately 70% of these thefts in our community and across Zone 6 are still Kias and Hyundais.

While many of you may have had a fix installed by the dealer or have models that are not within the easy to steal model years, the thieves are still trying to take the Kias and Hyundais, often damaging them during the unsuccessful attempt. For this reason, the EASP and Zone 6 strongly recommend using a club to provide a visible deterrent whenever you park any Kia or Hyundai outdoors.

Atlanta 911 is reporting problems with their 911 system. For an emergency, call 404-658-6666 instead of 911 until further notice. You can also text 911.

Due to overwhelming community support, we are extending our promotion of three free months through Sunday. Any new membership of three months or longer is entitled to the extra months tacked on to their membership. To join, visit our website at https://www.easecuritypatrol.com/residential-membership.html.

In addition to two significant arrests made earlier this month, our officers frequently help people just by their presence in the neighborhood. Just yesterday, our officer was able to assist one of our neighbors who flagged them down while driving on their street. And offered to help resolve the issue over the weekend. This is not common with on-duty officers, who seldom leave the main streets unless responding to a 911 call, or may be responding to a call outside the East Atlanta community when you need them.

In another instance yesterday, calling the EASP at 404-954-1568 AFTER calling 911 enabled our officer to respond to a call that was sitting in the pending queue. We always encourage this extra call, as most calls are not dispatched right away unless you are reporting a crime in progress. Suspicious person calls or home alarm calls often have long response times, and our officers can respond in an average of 3-5 minutes. Unfortunately they can't respond to a call if it's sitting in the pending queue.

Even if you can't afford a membership in the EASP, the service is available to all members of the community. Call 404-954-1568 or text [email protected] anytime you need a police response. Keep in mind that while we serve all residents, paid memberships are our only source of revenue. More memberships means more hours that our officers can patrol the neighborhood. And memberships do heavily factor into how much time the officers spend in different parts of our community.

If you have drug activity on your street in East Atlanta and live within the Atlanta city limits, please convey the exact address and street where the problem is occurring to [email protected]. If you wish for any action to be taken, do not state that it is the blue house on the corner of ABC street and XYZ street. The problems in the East Atlanta Village are separate from this request.

Be clear about the nature of the problem, such as drug use versus drug sales, foot traffic versus vehicle traffic, times of day this is occurring, etc. This is about ongoing issues in residential areas that impact the safety of our residents.

If you were planning to report 455 East Side or 585 Flat Shoals, those can be excluded from this request.

Your name, contact information or street address will not be used other than to obtain more information from you on the nature of the problem.

The East Atlanta Security Patrol (EASP) has a special offer through November 20th. Instead of waiting until our next official entry date of January 1st to become a member, you may join until November 20th and receive free membership through December 31st before your official membership kicks in on January 1st. We are also waiving the $15 signup fee during this period, so you can join for as little as $50 for almost five months of membership. We appreciate the community's support as we try to boost up our patrols during the holiday season.

​All membership dollars go toward funding extra police patrols by uniformed APD officers in East Atlanta. The goal is to discourage crime from occurring in our neighborhood rather than trying to catch criminals after crimes are committed. Patrol time is largely allocated based on where members live, so more members on your street mean a larger share of patrol time for your street. Patrols are also allocated based on current and historical crime patterns.
Members of the EASP may request extra patrols while away from home for work or on vacation. By submitting a simple form, members receive extra patrols at their homes from both the EASP officers and APD officers.

Membership in the EASP is $50 per quarter, with a one-time charge of $15 for administrative fees and an EASP yard sign. Memberships are offered for 3, 6 and 12 months. Call the EASP at 404-954-1568 with any questions.
