Atlanta police are investigating after a 31-year-old man wounded by gunfire was brought to a northwest Atlanta fire station early Saturday. Firefighters treated him at Station 9, 3481 Delmar Lane NW, before an ambulance took him to a hospital.
Police said they received reports of a shooting around 1:36 a.m. and that the man was awake and breathing before he was transported.
Initial findings suggest an argument over a drug deal escalated into gunfire, according to police. Someone drove the man to the station in a private car after he was shot. Detectives are investigating what led to the shooting.
Police had not released the man’s name or an update on his hospital condition. Investigators also had not said where the shooting occurred, who brought him to the station, or whether they had identified suspects or made arrests.
