BREAKING: A man was shot in midtown on I-75 South just past Northside drive. Police say after he was shot, he got out of the car and ran across both lanes on I-75 and then ended up running the wrong way on I-75/I-85. Stay with WSB for u

The ride-share driver immediately stopped the SUV on I-75, prompting the passengers to jump out of the vehicle and run across the southbound lanes, police Capt. William Ricker told Channel 2. “He wasn't sure, obviously, what was going on behind him,” he said. “Once everybody jumped out and ran, he saw a gun inside the car and blood, and then he drove off the interstate and called the police.”

Crime scene technicians were called to the Four Seasons Hotel to collect evidence from the bullet-riddled SUV.

The driver pulled over at the Four Seasons Hotel on 14th Street to call for help, he said. Crime scene technicians were called to the hotel to collect evidence from the bullet-riddled SUV. Police are still trying to track down the other occupants of the vehicle. The victim ended up at Grady Memorial Hospital, where he is being treated for gunshot wounds to his arms and legs.

He is stable, according to police.

    That's kinda an odd one - perhaps they were drunk from the club and got into it?

    THe uber driver was probably from the hood. No way a regular dude would have been in a gunfight and got out unharmed and successfully called the cops. Big ups to the Uber driver for pushing forward.
