Man Shot At Atlanta Officers During Chase In Woods: Police

ATLANTA, GA — A man accused of shooting at authorities during a police chase has been arrested, Atlanta Police said Monday.

Police said the incident happened around 9:45 p.m. Sunday, when officers responded to a domestic disturbance call in the 1900 block of Fisher Road Southeast.

They said Demetrius Gray, 36, of Atlanta, is facing multiple charges in connection with the incident.

Gray's brother asked him to leave his home, and police accused Gray of then becoming combative and pulling out a gun in front of his brother's children.

When officers arrived, police said Gray ran into a wooded area and into an elevated position.

Officers then surrounded the area, and during the search for Gray, police said he fired one shot toward officers. No officers were injured in the shooting, police said.

During the search, police said officers found a T-shirt on the ground with a revolver belonging to Gray inside of it.

Gray was eventually located and was detained after coming out from the wood line with his hands raised, police said.

Fulton County Jail records on Monday showed Gray was arrested on charges of two counts of aggravated assault, terroristic acts and threats, willful obstruction or hindrance of firefighter by use of threats or violence, possession of a firearm by convicted felon during the commission of or attempt to commit certain felonies, use of a firearm by convicted felon during the commission of a crime and first-degree cruelty to children. He remained incarcerated Monday.
