Six men shot after a fight between two groups ended in gunfire remained in the hospital Friday, according to DeKalb County police.

Investigators are speaking with witnesses and reviewing video footage to determine what happened and who will face charges, police said.

Shortly after 9 p.m. Thursday, officers were called to the 2300 block of Greenway Drive near Decatur, where they found all six victims with gunshot wounds, police said. All of the injured were taken to local hospitals, but their injuries weren’t believed to be life-threatening.

“Initial information indicates two groups of males were involved in a verbal altercation that quickly led to gunfire,” Lt. Shane Smith said in an emailed statement late Thursday.

An 18-year-old was among those shot and the ages of the others range to 48, police said Friday.

“Officers are speaking with witnesses and viewing video footage in an attempt to identify suspects in this case,” police said Friday.

No arrests have been announced.

Anyone with information regarding the shooting is asked to call investigators at 770-724-7850.
