Another dispute happened as officers arrived, police said.

ATLANTA — Atlanta Police Department officers are investigating a fatal shooting at an apartment complex Monday evening.

The scene unfolded at a complex on Moury Avenue SW just after 6:30 p.m. The address is in the area of the Village at Carver neighborhood.

Police said another person was hurt in an initial shooting and was taken to the hospital. As officers arrived, another dispute unfolded, investigators added.

An 11Alive crew at the scene saw people gather near officers in the parking lot of the complex. Officers have also set up crime scene tape blocking off a portion of the lot. At least one person was detained by police.

Police said the investigation is in its early stages and officers are still collecting details at the scene. Homicide investigators have also been called to the area to determine the circumstances of the shooting.

Recently, police were in the area on May 7 after a 16-year-old girl and a 20-year-old man were shot.

APD said there was a homicide in the same area this time last year involving two young male victims. Police also responded to a shooting in September 2022 after a juvenile was shot and killed.
