South Dallas Church Is a Repeat Crime Victim --
Atkins said each theft of air conditioning equipment does about $10,000 in damage and totaling all the crimes, he said they've suffered about $70,000 in losses or damage at the church.
Atkins' father is Dallas City Council Member Tennell Atkins who is also a member of the City Council Public Safety Committee which reviews police budget and policy.This video that clearly shows theft in progress should be enough for officers connected to the community to catch the person, Councilman Atkins said.
Pastor Atkins said he won’t let crime stop the mission of the church, but he does hope the video helps stop the culprit from striking again.
