We were on the bus on Fulton when it happened, -- it diverted down Dekalb. Kinda scary, that's right along our normal walking route. So from what I've gathered, the shooter got into a car and drove away? And the car was found abandoned nearby? And no one knows anything?

I heard this happened at around 1pm by a friend who took shelter in Not Rays. Started in car--shooting into the barber shop. Shooting returned out of shop and into street. At least one passerby shot; an elderly man. Secondhand but reliable info. My friend believes 5 people were shot, 1 was killed. Broad daylight, lunchtime. Street still cordoned off when I was on bus a few minutes ago.
