ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Atlanta police are responding to an “active shooter” at a medical complex in Midtown. According to officials, multiple people were injured and taken to Grady Hospital. No suspect is in custody, police said.

“Anyone in the area is asked to secure their building and continue to shelter in place. Anyone not in the area is asked to stay away,” APD said in a statement.

This happened at 1100 West Peachtree Street in a building that houses several medical offices and is operated by Northside Hospital.

Atlanta News First has a crew on the scene and is working to learn more. Return for updates.

Thanks.

First words I heard on link included that they were wondering how with dozens of cell phones, door cameras, building video and the rest, this killer got totally away from being caught by police from Noon hour to 7:45pm. Without a predetermined plan and escape route as others had.

Probably not true but if it was that’s why I said leftist. Many of these shooters are left, radicalized beyond Dems. Like the Nashville she-man.

Yes, I recall.. A small and whacky minority but so vicious.

Re the Ativan. I heard horror stories from fellow caregivers of elderly parents/grandparents that were given Ativan in the hospital and how it caused horrible hallucinations that never went away. I know hospital delirium (aka ICU pychosis) is common in the elderly, and cannot rule that out, but these people all said no delirium or hallucinations before the Ativan). I know that any drug, especially any psychotropic drug, can have additional or worse side effects in the elderly, but this one seemed to be particularly bad.

I am not not a doctor and cannot conjecture about whether the Ativan played a part in this, but I do wonder.

Yeah...if they were voters, they voted for leftists. Bernie, Hillary, Biden....

Rather than demonstrate the courage of their anti-gun convictions by eschewing gun ownership, they go nuts with a gun, in an attempt to deprive others of life and liberty. Reprobates..

ativan is mostly a sedative. It can cause horrible delirium usually in elderly but in younger folks if anything it makes you sleepy. withdrawal from it could be another story - while not physically dangerous it could make you agitated and edgy. I would wonder what else he was on legally or illegally and what mental illness they were treating.

“Dont forget all the calls on this site for execution”

There’s still some of that going on. I figure it’s a look at what Salem witch hunters must have been like.

Speaking of conspiracy, the deceased shooting victim worked for the CDC. We may never hear the end of this.

Please keep in mind we do not know what other drugs this person may have been taking legally or illegally. Let’s wait for the full info. I realize we may not receive full info. What the shooter did was wrong but we cannot blame the drugs he was or was not taking as the culprit in the shooting. The shooter bears that responsibility alone

The Democrats cannot catch a break in 2023.

None of the most publicized mass shooters have been from the political Right.

From memory - two Asians in California (one of them over age 60), a trans-male in Nashville, another trans with a violent manifesto arrested before shooting anyone, an illegal immigrant who murdered five other illegal immigrants, and close to half a dozen Black males.

Does anybody have that graphic for choosing the theme after a shooting? White shooter=racism; Black shooter=gun violence

Gavin Newsom has already used this as an excuse for more gun control.

They seem to be pushing the rule book in an effort to weaponize the pathological behavior of their own voters against their political enemies. Chilling stuff.

Sorry HOWEVER EVERY ONE of these shooters has been on some sort of psychotropic pharmaceutical this is the ONE THING they ALL have in common, there is something with these pharmaceuticals that goes terribly wrong in some people!!

You need to do more research. We have no idea what drugs (plural) these shooters were/are taking. Besides the shooter bares the responsibility for pulling the trigger. No drugs pulled the trigger on the firearm

The Allen mall killer was thrown out of the Army in 2008 because he was mentally ill. If they failed to update the FBI’s NICS database to reflect that, then the Army is liable, because that would have stopped him from buying any guns legally. The Air Force has already settled an almost identical case for $144,500,000.
