Investigators said they do not have a physical description of a potential suspect in the red car, but they believe the vehicle and the person in it may have been responsible for the shooting.

They are hoping someone recognizes the red car (pictured in story) and have some information that could help police find the person driving it. They are asking people to contact the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tip line at 404-577-TIPS (8477). If the tip helps lead to an arrest and indictment, you could be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
