Video shows man who sprayed apartment complex with bullets 2 days in a row

ATLANTA — Channel 2 Action News has obtained shocking video of a man pulling up to a southwest Atlanta apartment complex, where he simply walked up and started shooting.

Bullets started flying Sunday, March 17, at a complex on Fulton Street. The man, who was seen driving a black Jeep, sprayed the area, and bullets went through cars, several windows and glass doors.

Thankfully, no one was hurt -- but the gunman, who has yet to be identified, was not done.

He returned the next day and used a high-powered gun to shoot up the apartment complex again.

A grandmother told Channel 2's Audrey Washington she immediately grabbed her grandchildren and hit the floor.

"It could have went right through me and my grandkids and stuff," Sharon Bryant said. "I was afraid.”

“There’s crazy people out here. They don’t care. I mean, when you’re walking around with a gun that size, you don’t care, you really don’t," resident Karsyn Sharp said.

No one was hurt in either shooting, but people at the apartment complex are on edge, and some are moving out.

Washington spoke with a mother who lives in one of the apartments that was shot up. She returned to pick up some things but said she already moved out.

Bryant said she won’t feel totally safe until the shooter is off the streets.

“We need more patrols here,” Bryant said.

Anyone with information about the shooter is urged to call Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS (8477).
