Police on the scene of an active investigation say two groups of people in two cars exchanged gunfire outside a Wendy's in southwest Atlanta about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday.
A 15-year-old, later identified as Lorenzo Bernstein, was shot and died at Grady Memorial Hospital, while a second 15-year-old drove a red Lexus from the Wendy’s on Hamilton E. Holmes Drive to Fairburn Road.
Bernstein was in the Lexus, police said.
That second 15-year-old was shot at an apartment complex on Fairburn Road, which is about three miles from the Wendy's, Atlanta homicide detective Lt. Charles Hampton told Channel 2 Action News. He is in critical condition.
