A late-night shooting in Atlanta’s Zone 4 has left a 23-year-old man wounded, the Atlanta Police Department reported.

Emergency services were promptly on site and the victim was swiftly transported to a local hospital by ambulance, where he remains in stable condition; the Atlanta Police have not yet released the name of the victim as the investigation is ongoing, and it is unclear at this time whether any suspects have been identified or if arrests have been made in connection with the shooting, which has rocked the normally serene neighborhood.
