Gunfire erupted close to a neighborhood seafood restaurant, shattering the tranquility of a Marietta night and ultimately resulting in death. According to FOX 5 Atlanta, a guy was discovered shot dead in the early hours of the morning, prompting Cobb County police to launch an investigation. Around 12:20 a.m., authorities heard a gunshot and found the victim on the road at the intersection of Twin Brooks Drive and Franklin Gateway. On that same sidewalk, the man’s life faded away despite quick attempts to save him.
The fatal chain of events seemed to have started at Costa Mar Seafood & Grill and then spread into the restaurant’s parking lot and the nearby road, according to the Marietta Police Department. As the inquiry progresses, the individual who was shot once has not been identified. The event has left locals and onlookers on edge, with one gas station employee saying that he and his patrons were “startled by gunshots,” according to Atlanta News First. The police responded quickly to the pop and flash of gunfire, which stood in stark contrast to the silence of the night.
Since the event, law enforcement has been present at the area continuously, with cars parked outside the seafood restaurant till the wee hours of the morning. Officials encourage anyone who may have information to come forward, even though the shooting’s circumstances are still unclear. As they work to piece together the events, the Marietta Police Department is urging anyone with knowledge or who witnessed the incident to assist in their continuing investigation.
