A man and woman drove to a southwest Atlanta fire station for help Wednesday morning after a gunman opened fire on their vehicle, police said.
The victims' sedan ended up against the garage door of station 25 on Benjamin E. Mays Drive about 1:45 a.m. They were stable before they were taken to a hospital for treatment, according to Atlanta police spokesman Officer Steve Avery.
The victims, a 51-year-old man and a 32-year-old woman, told investigators the gunman approached their car in the 2300 block of Fontaine Avenue and shot into it, he said. They drove a quarter-mile across Cascade Road to get to the fire station.
Their vehicle was towed from the fire station about 2:30 a.m.
Investigators are still looking into the circumstances surrounding the shooting, Avery said. It is unknown if the victims were targeted.
A shooter has not been identified.
