Within 1 hour, cops respond to shootings at DeKalb Walmart, Buckhead apartments

Arrest warrants were obtained for Mosley for violation of the Georgia Controlled Substances Act for possession with intent to distribute and possession of a firearm, Wells said. Arrest warrants were obtained for Daniels for armed robbery and aggravated assault. Both were taken to the Dekalb County Jail.

Shortly after the DeKalb shooting, Atlanta officers were called to an area near the Home Depot at 2521 Piedmont Road around 4:40 p.m. regarding a man shot, police spokeswoman TaSheena Brown told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

That shooting, which was outside The Peninsula at Buckhead Apartments, appeared to be the result of a domestic incident, Brown said. The female suspect fled the scene after the shooting, police confirmed.

The victim was shot once and was conscious when taken to the hospital, Brown said.

Thursday’s shooting is not the first to occur near the luxury apartment complex this year.

Three men were injured in mid-May after an argument at a rooftop pool party poured into the lobby of the apartment complex and eventually ended with gunfire in the Home Depot parking lot, police said. The victims were identified by police as 71-year-old Richard Sweeley, 55-year-old Volcan Topalli and 22-year-old Andre Bourdages.

Police released photos of three men suspected in the shooting, but no arrests have been announced.

Following Thursday’s shooting, the apartment complex released a statement addressing the incident.

“Our top priority is the safety of our residents and staff,” a spokesperson for the Peninsula at Buckhead said. “We are grateful to the Atlanta Police Department for swiftly taking action to ensure the safety and wellbeing of those on-site, and we will continue to actively support authorities in their investigation.”
