DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A teen is recovering at Grady Memorial Hospital after he was shot when he went to meet a date he met off a popular dating app.
Dontay Copeland had to have surgery on his leg after he was shot and he has a long road of recovery ahead of him.
"Whatever he did, it didn't cause for him to almost lose his life," Copeland's grandmother, Linda Okoro, told Channel 2's Lauren Pozen.
“It is still going through my mind, this is the most aggravating part of learning something like this,” Okaro said.
Okoro said she was at church when she got word her 19-year-old grandson was shot and robbed Sunday afternoon.
