Two men were arrested Friday in connection with the shooting of two people early Friday at a downtown Atlanta strip club.
The shooting happened about 3:45 a.m. in the parking lot of the Magic City club on Forsyth Street, according to Atlanta police dispatchers.
A man and a woman were injured in the shooting, but their wounds were not believed to be life-threatening.
Atlanta police Sgt. Ed Baker told WSB-TV that he was working another call across the street at the Greyhound bus station when he heard shots fired.
"People were running from the establishment and cars were coming out of the parking lot," Baker told WSB.
Baker said officers stopped a car a short time later that was believed to have been involved in the altercation.
Denis Foster, 31, and Clarke Glennmore, 26, were booked into the Fulton County Jail in connection with the shooting, jail officials said.
The names of the victims were not immediately available.
The shooting was the second violent incident this week at an Atlanta strip club.
Early Wednesday, a dancer at the Candy Club on Empire Boulevard in southeast Atlanta was stabbed when several strippers got into a fight inside the club.
