Several miles north, near 8th and Spring Street, officers blocked off a portion of the roadway, after two groups shot at each other, according to police.

Evidence markers were scattered in a parking lot and sidewalk near the intersection. A FOX 5 photographer spotted damage from the overnight shooting, including a shattered window at NCR.

Witnesses recalled hearing dozens of shots around 3 a.m.

One witness said he and his wife were trying to get a bite to eat when they heard "more than 30" gunshots. They were frantically fleeing the frenzy when he said he accidentally hit an Atlanta police patrol car.

It's unclear if there were any injuries as a result of the shooting.

The status of the shooting suspects in both incidents is unknown.
