A horrific shooting incident occurred in southwest Atlanta on Saturday afternoon, as confirmed by police officials. The incident claimed the lives of three individuals.
Police authorities are currently looking into an incident in southwest Atlanta when three people were shot and killed. Around 1:30 pm on Saturday, the event was in progress on Evans Street, close to a number of shops when authorities received the distress call.
According to the investigation, three people had gunshot wounds when they were found. Tragically, two of them died from their wounds right there, and the third, who had been taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, eventually passed tragically. These three people were the only ones who took part in the incident.
A 17-year-old, a man in his early 20s, and a man in his late 30s are among the victims. They have not yet revealed their identities. Investigators said that one of the males approached the other two and opened fire, forcing one of the other two to retaliate.
According to the officials, they are not actively looking for any further suspects in relation to the event. They believe the surveillance video they have obtained gives a precise account of the events.
There is currently no information available on the possible causes of the shooting. Additional information may become available in due course while the inquiry is ongoing.
Meanwhile, another shooting incident occurred in Orlando. The incident left one person dead and injured three. The police officials have taken the suspect into custody.
Delray Shundale Duncan Jr., 23, has been detained on suspicion of first-degree felony murder and attempted homicide. The incident happened on Mercy Drive, but the victims weren’t found there; one was found inside a car.
Around 2:30 p.m., reports of an altercation in the courtyard of the Jernigan Gardens apartments on Mercy Drive began to surface.
