Atlanta police are investigating a fatal, early Sunday shooting on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.

Homicide detectives were at the scene in the 2400 block of MLK, where a man is believed to have been shot in his truck while driving in southwest Atlanta.

The victim, wo was not identified Sunday, was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where he later died.

More details as they become available.
