and it's on NONE of the local Atlanta stations. How odd.

FNC just mentioned it too. Sounds like a domestic dispute?

Paramedics are treating two people. The ABC and FOX station have now reported it(FOX just briefly cut in).

Shooting At CNN Center In Downtown Atlanta

POSTED: 1:36 pm EDT April 3, 2007
UPDATED: 1:51 pm EDT April 3, 2007

ATLANTA -- There has been a shooting at the CNN Center in Downtown Atlanta.

CNN reports that a woman was shot in the face.

Witnesses say they saw a man dragging a woman by the hair just before the shooting.

The gunman is in custody, according to CNN.

"There were people screaming and running for cover," said CNN producer Laura Bernadini, who was in the atrium of the massive building at the time of the shooting.

The CNN.com newsroom has been evacuated. That operation is in the lower level of the CNN Center.

A CNN producer says paramedics are treating two people at the scene.

WSB-TV Channel 2 has several crews heading to the scene.

Why the suspect would do such a thing is beyond me. Why at the news center? That's coincidence.

At the CNN Center is the Omni Hotel... where the woman worked. She and the suspect were having an argument.
