DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — Deputies have another arrest in a shooting at an Ingles that left two innocent people injured.

The shooting happened in April at the store along Rockbridge Road in DeKalb County.

Investigators said at the time that the shooting started as a fight between two employees, which quickly escalated when a third person got involved. Two of the men pulled out guns and started firing.

Two people, both in their 60s, were caught in the crossfire. They had nothing to do with the argument, but they were hit and rushed to the hospital with serious injuries, police said at the time.
