Two men were killed in a shooting Thursday at a southeast Atlanta tire shop, authorities said.
Atlanta police were called just before 4 p.m. to 2995 Jonesboro Road, an address that corresponds with JMR Tires. The shop is located near a townhouse complex and next to a pair of gas stations in the Orchard Knob neighborhood.
When officers arrived, they found a man dead at the scene, while another was “transported for care in critical condition,” police spokesman John Predmore said. On Thursday night, police said the second man was later pronounced dead at a hospital. Their names were not released.
No other details were provided by police about what led to the gunfire.
“Investigators with the homicide unit have been notified and are responding to the scene,” Predmore added. “The investigation is active and ongoing.”
