Woman injured in 2nd shooting in 2 days at Atlanta gas station

ATLANTA - A gas station on one of Atlanta's busiest streets became the site of a shooting just over a day after someone else was shot at the same location.

Officials with the Atlanta Police Department confirmed with FOX 5 that a woman had been shot around 2 a.m. at the Chevron gas station on the 100 block of Ponce de Leon Avenue.

At this time, police have not released the identity of the woman, but said she was alert, conscious, and breathing when she was taken to an area hospital for treatment.

Investigators said they are searching for the gunman. A description has not been released.

"It's just bad all around. It's bad all around. You hear about shootings every day. Every day you hear about shootings," said Mr. Arthur, who works in the area.

A motive behind the shooting was also under investigation.

The shooting comes just a little more than 24 hours after a man was shot multiple times at the same gas station.

Residents nearby heard the gunfire on Election night. Police say two men got into an argument and one shot the other at 11:57 p.m.

According to investigators, a dispute between the man and an unidentified suspect led up to the shooting. The victim in that case is in stable condition.

"I just remember hearing one gunshot. I was laying in bed and thought that sounded like a gunshot," one resident from the Massellton Condominiums next door shared. 

"I'm not surprised. I don't even think my wife stops at this gas station any more because of how many times she has been harassed by people" Highland resident Brent Howard reported. 

Other residents in the historic building heard the violence too.

"I had a guest over that night who said they heard it," Sarah Mansfield remarked.

Atlanta Police do not think the two shootings are related. They expect both victims to survive their shootings. 

Anyone with information about either shooting, please contact the Atlanta Police Department.
