DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — One man is dead and another hurt, after gunfire erupted inside an apartment Thursday.
 
The shooting happened on Willow Ridge Way in Avondale Estates around midnight.
 
Police say four people were inside the apartment when someone opened fire.
 
"There's evidence that it happened inside. It does not appear to be any evidence of forced entry at this time. We're still investigating to see if we can find out," said DeKalb Lt. Rod Bryant.
 
One of the victims was found dead near the front door and the injured victim was rushed to the hospital in serious condition.
 
Investigators believe the motive was robbery, but they are still talking with the people inside the unit.
 
Authorities say the victims appear to be in their mid-to late 20s.
 
Police are still searching for the gunman.
