Two children were shot in the Shawnee Apartments at 1220 Gun Club Road in northwest Atlanta late Thursday night, with police believing the shots were intended for someone in another unit. A 9-year-old suffered a gunshot wound to the arm and a 5-year-old was hit in the elbow while sitting on a couch inside their home. Hours later, another child was shot in southwest Atlanta while walking from a store, and police are continuing to investigate both incidents.
