Man opens fire inside crowded metro Atlanta restaurant, customers shoot back

By Tom Jones, WSB-TV
CONYERS, Ga. — Conyers police have a suspect in custody after a shootout inside a crowded restaurant and a SWAT situation at a nearby home.

Police got a call of shots fired at the Chiquitos Cantina and Grill on Old Salem Road. Officers say a man fired several shots, which led to other customers pulling out their guns.

Channel 2’s Darryn Moore was at the restaurant during Channel 2 Action News This Morning.

Police said the gunman fired more shots from outside, but no one was shot or hurt.

Channel 2’s Tom Jones went back to the restaurant where you can see large bullet holes in the glass windows and doors.

“[It’s like the] OK Corral. Boy, these people crazy,” customer Jonathan Stewart said.

Officers called in the Rockdale County SWAT team to look for the shooter and they surrounded a house less than a mile away on Oak Forest Drive.

SWAT officers walked three people out of the home. Police confirmed to Moore that one of them was the suspect. They have not released his name.

Bet he didn’t leave a tip, either.

What it means to take rights seriously is that one will honor them even when there is significant social cost in doing so.

          “That’s according to The New York Post. The Post spoke to the suspect’s grandma, Loretta, who confirmed the business but denied that her 30-year-old grandson had anything to do with the pipe bombs, calling him “gentle” and “naive.”

  2. I would LOVE to have an SA35. But pennies are tight right now. (sigh………..)

    1. mentioned it once – once only – to the money manager and her response was “how many HiPowers do you have already?” which kinda killed that. I will say one thing – no matter how much I like them, compared to a complete disassembly of a 1911, the HiPower is a Chinese puzzle.
