we are kicking off your 11 minutes
of nonstop news with a breaking
update in a shooting investigation.
We are learning more about the
five victims now in the hospital.
Police have been working the
scene for hours. Molly Oke is
there live with the latest Molly.
And police are still on
the hunt for the suspects.
They say five people were
shot here early this morning.
They say it happened around 2:00 AM,
just off of Thomasville Blvd.
Police say they learned
five people have been shot,
but most have already privately
transported themselves to the hospital.
They say one individual is in their
teens and is in critical condition.
The others are being treated
for their injuries.
We know two of the victims are at
Grady and three are at AMC and
police say the ages range from
13 all the way to 42 years old.
Police say people were hanging out in
front of the apartment and say some.
Victims live here,
but are not sure if all of them do
they say there were multiple shooters
and it is a massive crime scene.
Police are speaking to witnesses
right now and say they still
need to go back to the hospital
one to check on the victims,
but also to speak with them to get
more information as they continue to
search for the suspects back to you
all. All right, Molly, thank you.
A bizarre investigation happening in Atlanta.
Police say a man was shot in
the chest with a crossbow.
It happened at the pick and pay
on Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy.

pulled up to the store somebody?
Got out and shot the man on Saturday night.
Police are still trying to figure
out what led to that attack.
Clayton County
parents are reacting to the district's
decision to only allow clear backpacks.
District officials announced that
new safety measure last week after
banning book bags altogether and
lockers at the end of last school year.
Some parents we talked to say they don't
believe this is going to make a difference.
I don't know if that was
to make us feel better,
but I just I thought it was the
stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Alicia Taylor tells us she is open to
any suggestions that will help keep
her two daughters safe in school.
Now to a heads up that could save
you an expensive speeding ticket.
Police are going all out
to try to catch speeders.
Operation slowdown is underway across
Georgia and several neighboring states.
Law enforcement says it's to
keep the roads safer for you.
From 2019 to 2020,
Georgia saw 46% increase in
traffic deaths caused by speeding.
You will be saving more money
at the gas pump as we get.
Closer to under $4 a gallon.
New numbers show that the state
average per gallon sits at 404.
That's $0.15 less than a week ago.
Right now, Atlanta has some of
the state's most expensive gas.
So if you're in that area,
you may want to drive around.
That was.
Look at your top headlines
on a Monday morning.
Here
we go. Chelsea
651 gorgeous shot behind you.
There it is. Yeah, plenty of sunshine around.
Bring out those shades,
look cool as you driving into
work well you're gonna need them
at least to block it out, right?
Just to block it out,
but it is a beautiful sky.
That we have out there.
That's the way it's gonna stay,
at least through the early half of the day.
Once we get to the afternoon,
that's where we could see some of those
scattered showers popping up on us.
Nothing out there right now.
As a matter of fact,
a few clouds back off to the West of us,
and we've been tracking some
showers and some thunderstorms
over toward the West of us as well.
But I don't think they'll get in here.
We'll see the diurnal type pop up,
those pop up thunderstorms, that's we'll see.
4 central times of day shows temperatures
starting off in the 70s with 86 by noon.
91 will be our afternoon high temperature
when you factor in the humidity with that,
it's going to feel like the
upper 90s out there.
So yes,
shorts short sleeves are doable for
today 88 degrees by 7:00 o'clock as
a few of those showers will linger.
Here's the line I was telling you about.
You can see it falling apart as it
moves over toward the to the West,
to the east.
Now there's a front associated
with it stationary now,
and so it's just going to drift
down to the South.
In fact,
I don't think it makes it into our
area and would love for it to because
that would clear us out just a little bit.
You see the southerly flow out ahead
of this system off to the West of us,
and so with that southerly flow,
a lot of moisture coming in
with the daytime heating.
We'll be seeing those scattered showers.
What is the pop up now?
It's just a general threat over us.
It's back off to our West that will have
the threat for severe when they're over
toward northern parts of Mississippi,
Alabama,
central portions of Mississippi as well.
And again, that's a level one threat.
This pattern not changing all week long.
We're gonna be stuck with
the chances for the rain,
mainly during the afternoons,
lowers a little bit as we head
towards the end of the week.
In fact, the weekend,
even down to a 20% chance,
but the temperature will start to go back up.
So you gotta take the good with the bad
right forecast track model shows fair
skies this morning will hold on to that,
at least for about noon.
It's after about 2:00 o'clock.
We'll start to see these isolated
showers beginning to pop up.
Few embedded thunderstorms will
be in a few of those as well,
and again that will be around at least
through about 7-8 o'clock tonight.
We'll do it all over again for tomorrow,
even though we start off with
a few more clouds
in the area, which will help
to keep our temperature down,
but we'll have a good chance
for scattered showers.
Thunderstorms during the day on
Tuesday and through the afternoon.
We'll do it again on Wednesday.
Again, the pattern not changing much at all.
88 for your high temperature by Tuesday,
back up to around 90 degrees
for Wednesday and Thursday.
That's where we should be for this
time of year, then really going up.
As the percentage for rain goes
down as we head into the weekend,
