Authorities in metro Atlanta are investigating whether shootings at three massage parlors that left eight people dead and one wounded are connected.
Two of the shootings were at spas across the street from each other in northeast Atlanta and the other was in Cherokee County to the northwest of the city.
Officials in each jurisdiction said there were no immediate indications of motive and it is unclear whether the shootings were related.
A suspect in the Cherokee County shootings was taken into custody in Crisp County, about 150 miles south of Atlanta, around 8:30 p.m. — about 3 1/2 hours after the killings. The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office identified him as Robert Aaron Long, 21, of Woodstock.
Deputies were called to Young’s Asian Massage near Acworth, Georgia, for reports of a shooting, Cherokee County Sheriff’s spokesperson Jay Baker said.
Responding deputies found five people with gunshot wounds. Two people were pronounced dead at the scene and three were transported to a hospital, where two died, Baker said.
The massage parlor is about 30 miles from the sites of the Atlanta shootings, which took place about an hour later.

“spas”
$10 days they were seedy storefront hoorhouses.
All connected, that is an idiotic question unless there are regular, daily shootings that these types of businesses in the Atlanta area.
Good thing they already voted Democrat.
No happy ending.
Fox website has a photo of the creepy perp.
...and will continue to vote Democrat in perpetuity.
Somebody didn’t pay their protection bill.....
Biden is pResident and mass shootings are back. Who didn't see this coming?
Perhaps this kid is another FBI project aimed at reinforcing Biden's remarks about white kids attacking Asians. FBI/China op, maybe? Think that's far-fetched? HELL NO! I can hear more calls for gun control and gun bans now.. Hear it yet?
Once AGAIN, Biden is pResident, mass shootings are back. So darned predictable!
That is what I was thinking. Guns, white supremacists, racism, all stuff useful to the Dems and their current themes.
Is this the “mass shooting” that the anti-gunners have been waiting for? Something to push the bills they have ready over the top?
Will this add to the narrative of anti-Asian “hate crimes.?”
Time will tell.
Atlanta is a violent city.
The Georgia justice system will put this thug to death.
A Trump supporter who killed Asians because Trump called it the “Chinese Virus”
sums up twitter now
Wasn’t Ravi Zacharias connected to owning ‘parlors’?
Biden’s fault
Sounds like a business dispute over who is going to run the whorehouses in Atlanta.
No happy ending at that ‘massage’ parlor.
No known motive? It’s pretty clear to me. Somebody rubbed somebody the wrong way.
Ha Ha! That was my first thought.
