Shooting victim critical after 'targeted' shooting
Atlanta police say one person was shot outside an apartment complex along Fairburn Road after an argument ramped up into gunfire.
ATLANTA - Police are investigating a shooting at an apartment complex off Fairburn Road in southwest Atlanta on Wednesday afternoon that sent one person to the hospital.
Officers were called around 2:40 p.m. to the Elite at City Park just north of Benjamin E Mays Drive SW after a report of a shooting.
Atlanta police say officers found one person shot. They were rushed to an area hospital in critical condition.
SKYFOX 5 flew over the scene and saw officers swarming the area. Investigators were paying close attention to an area near the front entrance to the apartments.
Investigators say the shooting was targeted.
"It appears they were having some sort of an argument, I don't know what the circumstances of the argument was, but it seems to be two individuals," said Atlanta Police Lt. Germain Dearlove. "It seems to be an escalating dispute that went terribly too far."
No arrests have been made.
The victim’s identity has not been released.
