A man died after being shot multiple times Monday night in southwest Atlanta, according to police.

Investigators were called around 9 p.m. to the 1000 block of Arlington Avenue, where a driver had struck a utility pole, Officer John Chafee with Atlanta police said. The driver, whose name was not released, appeared to have been shot several times, Chafee said. The man was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he later died.

“The preliminary investigation indicates that the driver came to the location and may have been involved in some type of dispute,” Chafee said in an emailed statement early Tuesday.

The shooting remains under investigation and no arrests have been made in the case, police said.
