A man was shot multiple times while parked in his vehicle at a gas station in Alpharetta early Wednesday morning, according to police.
Officers got the call about a person shot around 3 a.m. at the QuikTrip on Milton Parkway and found the victim in the parking lot, Lt. Andrew Splawn told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The man was rushed to a hospital, where he is said to be stable.
Splawn said a male suspect, described as wearing a dark long-sleeved shirt and camouflage pants, ran away before police arrived. A motive was not clear.
Police remained at the gas station for several hours into the morning as the sun came up. Crime scene tape was strung across the parking lot, blocking access to some of the gas pumps.
Investigators appeared to focus on a silver Nissan Rogue parked in front of the gas station’s doors with at least one of its front windows covered in a black plastic tarp.
