Shoppers and diners in a crowded Buckhead business district ran screaming Tuesday afternoon when a man opened fire nearby.
Investigators believe the man was firing at a car driving along Peachtree Road near Buckhead Village, missing the vehicle but sending at least one bullet through the glass door of a Sephora store about 2 p.m. No one was injured, Atlanta police said.
Officers immediately began searching the area, and they located 33-year-old Henok Gebremichael hiding in a nearby neighborhood. After a short foot chase, Gebremichael was taken into custody without further incident, a police spokesperson said.
He is facing multiple charges, including 12 counts of reckless conduct and a single count of second-degree criminal damage to property. With a prior felony conviction and an “extensive criminal history,” Gebremichael was not supposed to have a gun, the police spokesperson said.
“He was a dangerous threat to the community and to the citizens of Atlanta, and thankfully, no innocent bystander or officers were injured,” the spokesperson said in a statement.

Is he a citizen? Hope so, because we need culture diversity. I’m sure he/they will adhere to our Constitution and laws.
And white people are supposed to give up their guns because of the actions of this physics major?

You have no idea what you’re talking about.
Wow, you mess up and then double down. Sephora is very expensive cosmetics.
