Officials said someone fired shots into a home on Hill Street just after 4 a.m. Tuesday.

Officers said the man was hit twice in the chest and once in the leg. The woman was hit in the buttocks and ankle.
Officer K.Y. Jones of the Atlanta Police Department said that they discovered later the home was the site of a methamphetamine lab.
Police said they began to head out to the area after receiving a call from a neighbor's house. That person thought someone was trying to break in to their home. Just before police arrived at the scene, a second call came in that shots had been fired.
Officers said there was no sign that anyone got into either home. Police said they are unclear what the gunman was after.
Both victims were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital. The man was listed in critical condition and the woman was listed in stable condition.
Atlanta police along with Drug Enforcement Agency are investigating the home.
No charges have been filed.
