The Atlanta Police are calling on the public to help track down three gunmen linked to the January shooting of an 11-year-old boy. Released footage captures the suspects police are hunting, urging anyone with possible information to step forward.
According to the Atlanta Police Department, the incident unfolded on the evening of January 14, when Zone 4 officers were dispatched to the 3200 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Drive following reports of gunfire, when they arrived they found the young victim with multiple wounds – still conscious, but marked by the violence that had just unfolded.
The youngster, amidst panic and fear, had attempted to elude the trio of attackers before taking cover near the aforementioned address, only to be found and shot twice, the Atlanta Police Department noted. He was rushed to a local hospital and has since been fighting for his life.
Authorities are painstakingly piecing together clues and now plea for community support; they've even sweetened the deal with a reward of up to $2,000 for tips leading to the suspects' capture, and it doesn't end there – tipsters can remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers Atlanta at (404) 577-TIPS (8477), online at www.StopCrimeAtl.org, or texting the keyword CSA followed by their tip to CRIMES (274637), allowing citizens to step forward without fear of exposure.
