Atlanta police investigated a shooting at a hookah bar on Bennett Street in south Buckhead early Wednesday morning.

Photos of two suspects were released Thursday in connection with a shooting outside a Buckhead hookah bar.

Officers were called to the Royal Chamber, a lounge and hookah bar at 49 Bennett Street, just before 4:30 a.m. Wednesday after getting reports of a person shot, Atlanta police said in a news release. One man was found wounded, and police said he is considered stable.

Surveillance footage of the two suspects walking through a hallway and down a staircase with multiple people were released by police. One suspect appears to be wearing a brown and white jacket and black jeans. Another is shown wearing a green jacket with a lightning bolt on the back.

Photographs from the scene also showed a dark blue BMW sedan with a North Carolina tag that was damaged by gunfire. Officers could be seen talking to a woman next to the car, and a man was handcuffed and led away by a detective. Authorities have not said if the detained man was involved.
