Fatal shooting erupts at Georgia party with over 100 teens
Two people were killed and six others were injured in the shooting that took place in a home in the town of Douglasville
Two people were killed and six others were injured at a shooting in a suburban Atlanta home Saturday night where over 100 teenagers had gathered for a party.
Investigators have been piecing together what transpired at the Douglasville home, the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement posted to social media Sunday morning. No suspects were apprehended as of Sunday morning, and it is unclear whether more than one person carried out the shooting.
“We know that there was a house party where well over a hundred teenagers were attending. A confrontation occurred that resulted in two deaths and six injured from gun shots. Information is very limited at this time,” the statement reads.
Deputies did not release the names of the victims in the statement.
Douglasville is just over 20 miles (32 kilometers) west of Atlanta, Georgia’s capital city.
