BUCKHEAD — Police are looking for three people after a man was shot and killed outside a bar at a busy Buckhead shopping center.

Atlanta police confirmed to Channel 2's Lauren Pozen the man died after he was shot in the torso and arm multiple times.

The shooting happened early Saturday outside the Hole In The Wall bar located off Peachtree Road and started as an argument, police said.

Police released surveillance photos and video of the men driving away in a red Nissan Altima, which has possible damage to its front end and windshield.

The victim's family identified the man as 28-year-old Sean Mobley, a father of two. His brother told Pozen their family moved to Atlanta from New Jersey when they were in third grade.

"You just don’t expect to come out to enjoy yourself have a good night." Webb said. "All of a sudden just gunshots ringing out, there were cars hitting each other. There was an accident right here."

It is the second shooting in a week for Buckhead and it has some neighbors concerned.

"Buckhead is good area and then stuff like this goes on and it makes you think like 'What is really going on? Like I just need to sit at home.'" Webb said.
