A known gangster was shot at several times but not injured Sunday evening near his home on Hollow Ridge Drive, Athens-Clarke County police said.
The 22-year-old member of the 2 Tuff street gang was in an SUV when three to seven shots rang out at Sage Lane and Buckingham Court, witnesses said.
Police said two bullets hit the SUV’s door, with one passing through the door and striking the dashboard. Air could be heard leaking out of one of the tires hit by gunfire, police said.
The gang member was not cooperative with the investigation into the shooting and was said by police to be acting “nonchalant” despite being “lucky to be alive considering the impact points of the bullets on the car.”
