The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is reviewing an officer-involved shooting Monday in Dade County.
According to reports from the GBI, investigators from the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office in Alabama were following leads on a stolen car, which led them to a gas station in Dade County.
Shortly before 7 p.m. at the One 9 Pilot Travel Center on Highway 299 in the Wildwood area of Dade County, officers saw the stolen car they were looking for. Ethan Wayne Rogers, 32, of Fort Payne, Alabama, was driving the vehicle, and another man and woman were passengers.

As investigators approached the vehicle on foot, they requested that Rogers get out of the car. Instead, according to a press release from Assistant Special Agent in Charge Earl Glover, Rogers drove the car in the direction of one of the officers. A second investigator responded by shooting into the car, striking Rogers.
