An early morning shooting in the parking lot of a northeast Atlanta adult club left one man wounded.

The victim was sitting in a Mercedes Benz in the lot of Club Onyx on Cheshire Bridge Road when the gunfire rang out shortly before 3 a.m Wednesday.

The bullet "went through the rear passenger door, through the passenger seat into his back," Atlanta police Capt. Van Hobbs told Channel 2 Action News.

The victim, whose name has not been released, was in stable condition at Grady Memorial Hospital. Police have not said what sparked the shooting.

Another man was shot in the back in a separate overnight incident outside an apartment on Angier Avenue in northeast Atlanta.

Channel 2 reported that the victim's girlfriend told police that she and her boyfriend were approached by two gunmen in the breezeway of the apartment. The victim was shot in the back, and the gunmen stole their Buick Regal.

The victim's identity and condition were not immediately available.
