Cobb Police said Tuesday night that Cody Demmitt has been captured in Arkansas.
ORIGINAL REPORT:
The Cobb Police Department late Monday afternoon released a photo of a man suspected of injuring one person during a shooting on Sunday at a home in Northeast Cobb.
Police said they’ve obtained an arrest warrant for Cody Demmitt, who remains at-large and is wanted for aggravated assault.
According to a police release, Demmitt shot multiple rounds at a residence at 3760 Westchase Drive, located in the Canterbury Ridge subdivision off Canton Road and near Hawkins Store Road.
Police said their detectives said were called to the home at 11:30 p.m. Sunday after a shooting had been reported.
Police said they found a male with a gunshot wound to a shoulder, and he was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police said Demmitt is a neighbor of the victim, and had not been allowed to attend a party at the home. Demmitt fired several shots in the house and fled the scene before law enforcement arrived, police said.
Anyone with information about the incident should call Cobb County Police Department’s Crimes Against Persons Unit at 770-499-3945.
