Captain Allyn Glover told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution: ‘We are actively looking for a suspect but do not have any further information at this time.’

Witness Brynae Kinsey told CBS46: We were waiting for our spot at the Juicy Crab, and we were waiting outside actually at that bench right there. We heard two gunshots and I seen somebody run out that door, and I ran.’

They added: ‘I just heard her scream ‘ahhh,’ and then I heard two pops. Pop, pop. I just wondered what was going through his head for him to pop off like that.’

Another witness described the scene, as guests ran into the kitchen in the back of the restaurant after the shots were fired.
