ATLANTA - A man and a woman were shot inside the building complex that houses CNN's headquarters in what police described as a "domestic situation."
The two were arguing inside the building when the man pulled out a gun and shot the woman, Atlanta Police Officer James Polite said. He said the man was then shot by a CNN security guard.
Reports vary - some say two shot. Some reports say a woman was shot in the face, but others say a man was taken away on a stretcher with blood on his face.
ATLANTA -- Gunfire was heard inside the building complex that houses CNN's headquarters, and at least one person was carried out on a stretcher.
CNN reported that the offices of its Internet operations, CNN.com, were evacuated and that a suspect was in custody. Video footage showed police pointing guns at a man lying on the ground inside a building.
An announcement over the complex's public-address system said there had been gunfire "with potential casualties by the escalators'' near the main entrance. The entrance faces Centennial Olympic Park.
"I heard four or five shots,'' said Jas Stanford, 27, who had been helping take down a stage in the park used for Final Four basketball festivities.
"I really didn't see it,'' Stanford added. "I got out of there quick.''
"Bush is Hitler" no "Reagan was Hitler" no "Bush is Hitler" BANG

Great. Here comes a bunch of pro-gun control stories from "unbiased" CNN.

"Quagmire!"
Yes, they should cut and run from that building while they can. They've become the targets of the locals and are deeply hated. No peace can come about as long as they stay there. ;)

guns don't kill people. idiotic liberal political philosophies ("let's pass a resolution, and maybe they'll stop being mean!") kill people.
see: most recently, darfur.

Hey, do you notice something? All the places where the U.N and the Euros did nothing are rather......dark. That can't be. Everyone knows that lefties aren't racist. (massive, heavy, sarcasm)

haha. Just like a wingnut.
A shooting at CNN and the first words out of their mouths are, "Don't Take My Guns!!!"

Yeah, Zifnab if someone orders you to come take my guns it would be a good day for you to call in sick. Did the gun shoot the woman all on its own? If he hit her with a baseball bat or a hammer you want to collect all those up too?
Just like a netrooter - dumb as shit and just as useful.

I'll assume Fox News beat them to the story.

So Zif where did ANYONE say don't take my guns? It was simply a lament that we will see more biased reporting from CC/MSM/haters of the Constitution equating us with criminals.
As for showing sympathy for the victims you are a raging hypocrite in those situations. I expect that from you and your kind, though.

"Some reports say a woman was shot in the face"
Hmmm...shot in the face? Where's "Shooter" Cheney been, anyway?
