Officers shoot man ‘actively shooting’ at someone near Atlanta Chick-fil-A
ATLANTA — Atlanta police confirmed a man is dead after yet another shooting near a fast-food restaurant in northwest Atlanta.
Officers heard gunshots in the 800 block of MLK Jr. Drive by the Chick-fil-A around 9 p.m. Friday night.
When they responded, the officers came across a “running gun battle,” according to Atlanta Deputy Chief Charles Hampton Jr.
Hampton said the officers told 35-year-old Willie Williams, who was shooting, to drop his weapon. The officers said Williams did not, and they returned fire at him. Williams died on the scene.
Atlanta police requested the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to take over the scene and figure out who fired the deadly shot.
“Right now, it is unknown if the injury was a result of the officers’ gunfire due to the fact that he was actively engaged in the previous gun battle,” Hampton said.

A man died after he was shot during a domestic violence incident in northwest Harris County Monday morning, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.The sheriff said deputies from Precinct 1 responded to several calls of a shooting from neighbors around 5:30 a.m. on Mountain Daisy Road near Vikram Drive.
Neighbors said they heard several shots being fired in the neighborhood. Another said they found a man in their backyard, who appeared to have collapsed.
HCSO Sgt. Jason Brown said deputies learned there had been some sort of domestic violence altercation. An ex-boyfriend was assaulting a woman and was in the process of pulling her out of a car when her two sons, 27 years old and 15 years old, came out to intervene. The woman then tried to drive away.
Brown said it has not been confirmed, but supposedly the ex-boyfriend jumped on the hood of her car as she tried to escape him. That is when the two sons went after their mother and her ex.
When the sons caught up to the man three blocks away, the ex-boyfriend tried to assault them, Brown said. The oldest son then fired several shots at the man, hitting him at least once.

Houston, we have a problem and KHOU is there. Thanks, Gun Bunny. Folks were getting worried civilization had broken out in SE Texas.

Good on the sons for acting to protect Mom.
And as been said here before, “She’s just not that into you anymore. But her son’s bullet is. Time to move on. Oh……wait…….nebbermind.”
Obviously enough firepower of the proper caliber was brought to bear to neutralize the situation.
The sons are a GO at this station, no further range time needed.
Yeah, ’bout Atlanta – I’d really like it if Baby Sis & fam got outta there.
I got out of Houston years ago – and try to stay out as much as possible. When I do go, I have a full load-out.
Hopefully this election will clean out a lot of the (D)emon-rat trash in office in Harris County.
Oh – around here we don’t consider Harris County as part of Southeast Texas, AW1Ed. There is Harris County, SE Texas, the Golden Triangle, the Coast – and they are different areas. FWIW
I did not know the Russians were capable of interesting guns…The PL15K geometry reminds me of certain small bathc Czech products. Would be intersting to shoot.
You had to link to The Firearms Blog…THe Ghost Gunner is still alive and well…I thought baout buying one of those a while ago, but the price was rediculous…of course they wouldn’t tell you what it was until you decided to purchase… $2,500 sounds much more reasonable.
Well, it was inevitable. Between a running gun battle in one direction, the po-po shouting and shooting at you in a different direction, and (now-Wasted) Willie Williams (not to be confused with TAH’s own WWW – BTW, anyone heard from him lately?) caught in the middle, the odds were stacked against him.
A twofer Tuesday DRT! Beats all hell out of Libs of TikTok Tuesday. A running gunbattle on MLK St, ATL, near a chicken house? Who’d athunk it? Musta wanted the mac & cheese instead of the waffle fries. Maybe they thought they were at popeye’s?
