Atlanta turned into a wild west parking lot early Thursday morning when an argument escalated to a full-blown shootout. According to Atlanta Police Department, officers were dispatched around 3:26am to 1888 Cheshire Bridge Rd where they discovered several vehicles had been sprayed with bullets. The cars, now riddled with scars of early morning fury, were unoccupied and thankfully, there were no injuries reported.

The officers arrived on a scene that bore the marks of chaos, glass and metal punctured by the anger of bullets. They met with vehicle owners, their frustrations audible in the early morning air, as they reported the damage inflicted upon their property. It seems the gunfight was between two parties; one group was shooting as they left the scene in a vehicle, the other returned fire from their positions in the parking lot. Investigators are actively piecing together what sparked the violence and which bullets belonged to whom, yet the full picture remains blurred by the smoke of discharged firearms.

As the day broke, the sun's rays did little to illuminate the motive behind the incident, with detectives still laboring to uncover what led to the violent dispute. Authorities have yet to release details on if this was a targeted attack or a random altercation gone dangerously wrong. The investigation is ongoing, and it is not known if any arrests have been made in connection to the brazen act.

The Atlanta Police Department has not released any information regarding suspects yet, but they urge anyone with knowledge about the shooting to come forward.
