“Outstanding service. They were extremely careful delivering the extra large container into our driveway.” -- A. L. GARNER
Just before 9:10 p.m. Wednesday, two men entered the McDonald’s in the 5100 block of Riverdale Road with weapons and their faces covered, Clayton police Sgt. Ashanti Marbury said.“One male demanded the employees and patrons to surrender their cellphones and then removed money from the cash register as the other male brandished a weapon,” she said Thursday in a statement.Moments after the men exited the restaurant with the valuables, shots rang out, Marbury said.Officers responded and searched the restaurant.“While checking the perimeter of the business,” Marbury said in the statement, “a deceased male was located lying face down in a grassy area behind the dumpster.”Surveillance video from the restaurant helped officers identify the dead man as one of the masked robbers, she said.Police recovered the mask and an undisclosed amount of cash. He had multiple cellphones on or near him, Marbury said.Police do not know who shot him and they have not recovered a weapon. However, they do know that no one inside the restaurant pulled the trigger.The other masked man has not been found, police said. It is unclear if he was injured. (Atlanta Journal Constitution)
