Gunman on the run after 2 shot, killed outside Taco Bell in northeast Atlanta

ATLANTA — At least one gunman is on the run after two people were shot and killed outside a Taco Bell.

Investigators said they were called to Parkway Drive Northeast for a report of a person shot around 10:30 p.m. Sunday.

Police told Channel 2 Action News that someone driving a black SUV shot and killed two men.

Police said that when they arrived at the scene, officers found one man dead on the sidewalk. A second man was taken to the hospital, where he died overnight, according to police.

A couple of blocks away, investigators found two Georgia State college students inside a car. They had escaped the gunfire.

Channel 2's Tom Regan was live at the scene Monday as detectives searched for evidence.

Police still don't know what sparked the attack, but they believe the gunman targeted the victims.

"I saw the crowd running. I was in my car at the light, hearing things like that," a witness said.

Bullets hit sidewalks, an electrical panel on the restaurant and a window on an apartment building across the street.

One stray bullet hit a car in the restaurant's drive-thru. A GSU student who was inside the car picking up food is OK.

Police said the victims, whose names haven't been released, appeared to be in their late 30s or early 40s.
