Four Shot at GSU Downtown Campus

ATLANTA, GA -- Four people were shot Wednesday night near Georgia State University.

One of the victims is believed to be a suspect and is in custody, reports Channel 2 Action News.

The shooting happened when an argument inside a JR Crickets restaurant spilled out onto the street. The restaurant is located at the corner of Forsyth and Poplar streets.

All of the victims were transported to Grady Memorial Hospital with non life-threatening injuries.
