DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — An arrest has been made after a 55-year-old man was found shot in a vehicle at a DeKalb gas station last Tuesday night. That man later died due to his injuries at the hospital, DeKalb Police said. 

Officers were called to the Chevron gas station at 4766 Redan Road around 8:30 p.m. in regard to shots fired on June 20. When police arrived, they found the man in the front seat of the vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds.

EMS rushed the man to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead, the police department said. 

Evidence shows the man spoke with the suspect before the shooting, according to police. Authorities said the shooting did not appear to be a random act. 

One week later, detectives took 26-year-old Nathan Weeks into custody in connection to the man's death. Authorities did not release the identity of the man who was killed.
