1. Suspect hospitalized after Cartersville officer-involved shooting: Cartersville Police were dispatched on Thursday to the Circle K at 902 Joe Frank Harris Parkway due to a report of a subject with a gun. The man had allegedly shot at the door of the gas station and had been pointing the weapon at other people. When the responding officer requested the suspect show his hands, the man fled on foot and began to shoot at the officer. The officer gave chase, returned fire and shot the suspect.
