Deadly Forsyth Street shooting

Officers were called to 232 Forsyth Street, S.W. around 5:30 p.m. - which is the address of the Greyhound bus station in Downtown Atlanta - to respond to the scene of a shooting.

When they arrived, they found a man injured. He was taken to the hospital where he died, APD said.

At some point during the dispute, the suspect allegedly pulled out a gun and shot the victim. The suspect left the scene. Investigators responded to the scene and are working to identify the shooter.

Victim in hospital after Newcastle Street shooting
