Police were on the scene of a violent carjacking at the Wells Fargo on Cascade Road this afternoon. According to WSB-TV, a man was shot and had his mother-in-law's car stolen from Wells Fargo around 3pm on Monday afternoon in Southwest Atlanta.
Reportedly the man that was shot borrowed the car from his fiance, who had borrowed it from her own mother. The man was shot in the backside by the perpetrator, but he is now "alert and conscious at Grady Memorial Hospital," according to Channel 2’s Craig Lucie.
Witnesses say they saw 2 cars speeding off. Police are asking people to be on the lookout for a 2005 teal Mercury Marquis with a handicapped sticker.
