Five teenagers were shot during a fight outside a diner in Atlanta, and two of them allegedly carjacked a vehicle at gunpoint to get to a hospital.

Two females and three males between the ages of 15 and 19 were wounded on the night of April 23 outside a Waffle House near Centennial Olympic Park. Police have yet to learn what started the fight.


A spokesperson for Waffle house says that no customers were inside the restaurant at the time because the building was locked and only serving customers through the walk-up window.

Two of the males carjacked a vehicle from a valet parking attendant, and the other three were still at the scene when police arrived. All five teenagers were reported in stable condition.


Police recovered three weapons and charged the two males who allegedly stole the vehicle with carjacking. No descriptions of the suspects have been released. The police department is still investigating.
