Is. they just don t know where he is as you have been talking about. and i got a note from the public affairs unit that says they are aware of a vehicle carjacking on 14th street and william street not long after the shooting. the vehicle they say has been recovered by law enforcement partners in cobb county, and they are working to determine whether that vehicle is connected to the shooting in any way. they are still looking to see if any more victims might be within that medical center. again, so far five victims, one of them has since died. you heard from the grady hospital, from the surgeon there that they were expecting a lot more victims, possibly 12. they were relieved to only get five victims. they were preparing for a larger mass shooting event, and you can see that the city of atlanta is
Update, and that was the latest we ve heard. our crews on the scene telling us that employees, staff people inside of north side hospital were being evacuated. in this sky cam, i ve seen a lot of people in scrubs walking down the road. we were just on the road with state senator josh mclauren who is in currently in lockdown in a restaurant in midtown and he said atlanta police popped in to tell them to continue to shelter in place, but it does appear some buildings right now being cleared by police. the suspect does not appear to be in them, and those people are being escorted out. somewhere in that maze of buildings and streets is the man they re looking for in this shooting of five people, one confirmed dead. we should mention while we do know four people have been injured and are at grady hospital, a level one trauma center, we do not know the conditions of those people, and we ll certainly update you on that point as soon as we get more information. all right. everybody, we hav
If they do a search warrant or if this person had an online presence, you might be looking to see what were the intentions, any notifications. we often times will see in these scenarios where there s sort of a last post that s made before a violence incident like this. that might give a clue where this individual is or what his intentions might be after the shooting. i m hopeful this is a fast breaking operation. as you can see there, they ve got all the resources from everywhere around the atlanta area, it looks like working on this. i m hoping it comes to a safe and peaceful resolution here quite soon. we share your hope there, clint, is it likely a situation in which law enforcement will glean whatever they can as quickly as possible, and then disable social media so that god forbid the suspected shooter, if he has any ideas of committing other crimes or doing anything else doesn t have access to that or any kind of live streaming capabilities? yeah, in this case, if they do fin
Way. most people would agree that this is something we don t want to be part of our society, part of our every day experience, and you know, we re going to hear people call for more metal detectors or fewer doors or entry/exit points and i guess my thought is, this really sucks, i don t want to live in a militarized society where we re living in constant fear of gun violence when you re out to eat or going to work, and this is one more example of that. we re so sorry that you and your community are having to go through this, and senator mclaurin if you could stand by and let you are team you re communicating with if there s anything else you would like to add to the conversation or anything else you see or hear on the screen. vaughn hillyard, you re familiar with the area, as we learn more about north side hospital and finally learning that they re tweeting that the shooting took place at their location, what can you tell us about this? this is a major hospital facility, number one
Actually they are the suspect. or the suspect is holed up in their vehicle, unknowingly, and you have allowed a citizen to drive home with someone inside the car. all of this going on in a very crowded, challenging environment. clint, do you want to weigh in here? yeah, i just think they are going to be moving very very quickly, and if i can tie back to anything, just a few days, you know, ago we were talking about the shooting in texas, and they just didn t have a lot of details, and they didn t have a lot of law enforcement officers. we re seeing the inverse situation here where speed matters, they re moving very quickly. separately, you know, just looking at this law enforcement response here, they re going to be able to move on any lead or tip that comes in. so i think this is a set up that s going to be very aggressive, like frank said, they re going to be going for the search warrant. the other thing i would add is they would be looking in terms of any sort of postings, maybe
