ATLANTA – Atlanta police Friday are investigating the fatal shooting of a man who was struck by a bullet fired through a window into his home.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that police say the victim, who was in his 20s, was in his bedroom about 3:30 a.m. on Friday when at least nine shots were fired outside the house in northwest Atlanta.
Atlanta police Major Keith Meadows says there’s no indication that the victim was the intended target.
He said investigators are looking for witnesses and trying to identify individuals believed to have been outside the home before the shooting.
On Monday night, a 13-year-old Gwinnett County middle school student was killed when a bullet fired in a parking lot came through his bedroom window, striking him in the abdomen.
