Man killed in Friday shooting in Atlanta identified, suspect at large
One man is dead and another has been hospitalized after what police call a “targeted shooting” at 10:30 p.m. Friday in Atlanta.
According to police, at least one person approached the two men as they sat in a car on the 3000 block of Barrow Place. Police said they exchanged words and at some point, the suspect fired at the victims.
Both men were transported to Grady where one of them – Kenneth Corn, 32, of Atlanta – died.
Police have not made an arrest.
