DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — One person is dead and two others are in the hospital after a late night shooting in Tucker.

Late Wednesday night officers received a call of person shot on Snapfinger Woods Drive in DeKalb County.

“They discovered a white vehicle off the side of the road that had been driven into woodline, inside that vehicle we located one adult male deceased from apparent gunshot wounds,” said Lt. Mark Lavine.

Officers received a second call about two more people shot. They found them not far from the white Jeep that smashed into a tree.

“We're trying to determine where exactly the crime scene is, if it all happened inside the vehicle or if something transpired outside the vehicle, we’re not sure at this time,” Lavine said.

Both of the survivors, 18 and 26 years old, were taken to the hospital; one was listed in critical condition and the other was listed as non-critical.

Police believe the shootings are all related.
