Person shot in southwest Atlanta Monday night

Investigators found a significant amount of blood was found on Rawson Street along with a single shell casing.

ATLANTA -- Atlanta Police said a man was shot in the leg in southwest Atlanta Monday night.

At about 11 pm, officers responded to reports of a person down call near the intersection of Fulton and Ira streets in southwest Atlanta.

When they arrived, they found a black male victim with a single gunshot wound in his right calf. The victim told officers that while he was in a dispute with a female associate in the 300 block of Rawson Street, a black male suspect shot him.

Investigators found what appeared to be a crime scene at that location with a single shell casing and what they called a "significant amount of blood."

The victim was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital in stable condition.

Atlanta Police investigators were still looking for the suspect in the shooting on Tuesday.
