Officers responded to the apartment complex about 4:30 p.m. and found a woman with a gunshot wound to her leg, Atlanta police spokeswoman TaSheena Brown told AJC.com.
While at the scene, witnesses told police that two more shooting victims had left the area, Brown said. Soon after, officers found them near the intersection of Fairburn Road and Cascade Road, which is about a mile away in South Fulton.
The two victims, one of which was later identified as McKinzie, were sitting in a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder when someone fired at them, Brown said. The other victim’s injuries were not released.
Avoid the intersection of Fairburn Rd at Cascade Rd due to a shooting that originated within the City of Atlanta. The intersection is closed until further notice.
