Atlanta police are investigating a shooting early Sunday that left one man dead near a west Atlanta strip club and a second man in “grave condition,” a police department spokesman said.

One man died near Stilettos Gentlemen’s Club in the 800-block of Marietta Street after suffering multiple gunshot wounds, Atlanta Police spokesman Gregory Lyon said in an email. A second man who was wounded in the head not far from the strip club was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, police said.

The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the deceased as 37-year-old Mark Turner of Atlanta. The identity of the second man was not immediately known.

The shootings were reported about 3:30 a.m. The area of the shootings is just west of Georgia Tech.
