DEKALB COUNTY, GA — The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is looking into a police shooting that left a Stone Mountain man critically injured early Wednesday morning.
Around 3:10 a.m., a DeKalb County officer conducted a traffic stop near Central Drive and Lancanshire Circle and made contact with the driver identified as 64-year-old Rodney Moore.
GBI officials say the officer learned Moore had an active arrest warrant. Moore then told the officer he had a gun. When the officer attempted to arrest him, Moore was shot.
Officers provided aid at the scene before Moore was taken to a local hospital in critical condition.
According to the GBI, once the investigation is completed, the case will be turned over to the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office for review.
