DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — A deadly shooting outside of a Dekalb County Citgo gas station and the moments before the gunshots were all captured on camera Tuesday.
Witnesses say the fight started because of something the victim said to a young girl. The suspect is still not in custody.
“The lady was shouting outside, ‘Why did you say that to my girl, why did you do that to my girl?’” Citgo employee Sunny Ram said.
From the surveillance video, it’s not clear what was said to the little girl inside the Citgo on Columbia Drive near Interstate 20.
But in the video, you can see the moment the man with the girl became uncomfortable and escorted her out of the store and to the car.
And then seconds later, that man began swinging at the man who made the comments.
“First they had a fistfight over here and then they took out the guns,” Ram said.
Surveillance video shows the gun. Ram said he tried to intervene.
“They already had their guns out so I went and told the parties to ‘calm down everything will be alright you go’.”
