Man collapses, dies outside metro Atlanta gas station

Channel 2 Action News has learned a man collapsed and died outside a metro Atlanta gas station Tuesday afternoon.

A witness told Channel 2's Tom Regan the victim had drove himself to a Texaco gas station in Union City after a shooting. Another man was injured and taken to the hospital.

NewsChopper 2 flew over the apartment complex, where police say a shooting happened. Detectives were placing evidence markers in the parking lot.

"I looked out my window (and there were) two guys shooting at each other," an emotional witness told Channel 2's Tom Regan.

The witness did not want to speak to us on camera but said she saw the gunfight.

Paramedics rushed the wounded man to the hospital. Union City police spent hours piecing together information and evidence in the deadly shootout.

"It's very unfortunate, I mean very unfortunate. In this day and time, it's just senseless killing happening," said resident Tammy Williams.

Police have not released the identity of the man who died.
