Clark and Linda wrote in reporting crime scene tape across Church Street this afternoon, with an ambulance on site and a helicopter overhead.

Chief Booker quickly responded to my inquiry with details…

…the Decatur Police Department responded to a person shot call in the parking lot of DeKalb Probation located in the 500 block of Church Street. Investigations revealed the subject had a non life threatening gunshot wound. The incident occurred outside the city limits of Decatur. The appropriate police department was notified and responded to the scene and the investigation was turned over to them for follow up. It is currently under investigation by the Clarkston Police Department. Hope this clarifies the incident, we weren’t sure initially if the crime scene was here or somewhere else thus the reason for the crime scene tape and rerouting of traffic.

As always, I appreciate DPD’s quick response – on both on 911 calls AND email inquiries!
