A teen faces theft charges after he allegedly stole two Porsches from the company’s North American headquarters in Hapeville and posted about the incident on Instagram last month.
Nehemiah Brewer, 19, was arrested Sunday on theft by taking and entering auto charges after he and at least one accomplice stole a white Porsche Macan and a black Porsche Cayenne on Jan. 16. The SUVs are worth a combined $200,000.
According to a police report, delivery driver Joseph Foskey had just dropped off the SUVs when the incident happened.

“(The driver) had returned to the cab of the tractor to put some of the (car) keys away because they wouldn’t fit in his pocket,” Hapeville police Sgt. K. Ozee wrote in his report.
Foskey then saw a white Nissan Infinity pull into the lot. Moments later he heard the black Porsche Cayenne start up and drive off the lot. The driver was later identified as Brewer.
Foskey called officers, but the second SUV was being stolen as they arrived.
Police were able to find Brewer after he allegedly posted himself committing the crime on Instagram.
He was released from jail Tuesday. No further details have been released on the case.
