MABLETON, Ga. — A man was shot and then run over by a car in a Mableton neighborhood Monday morning, according to witnesses.
Greg and Laurie Hyde have lived in the neighborhood on St. Martins Drive for 25 years. They said the shooting happened at a home across the street used as a recording studio. The Hydes said the shooting happened out of nowhere.
"A silver four-door car came down the cul-de-sac kind of stopped," Laurie said.
She said a man they didn't recognize came out of a house and got into a car. Then, a few minutes later, he got out and that's when the shots were fired. Laurie said she heard between 10-15 shots in a row.
"He of course went down immediately," she said. "They're still firing, and he's kind of rolling, trying to get out of the way."
The Hydes said then the car ran over the victim and then sped off, as more shots were being fired. Soon after, police arrived on the scene along with EMS.
"They took him off in an ambulance and he was alive then," Greg said.
According to Sgt. Wayne Delk with the Cobb County Police Department, the person shot was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.
Right now, there is no information on the victim, their condition, or a suspect. Delk said officers will provide more information as they continue to investigate.
