Sgt. Eric Smith, a spokesman for Cobb Police, said police are continuing to investigate an incident that took place Sunday night at 3162 Johnson Ferry Road.

That’s the Shallowford Falls Shopping Center anchored by a Kroger store. In response to a request for information from East Cobb News, Smith said that police were called to that address at 11:26 p.m. Sunday after getting reports of an armed robbery.

When officers arrived, Smith said they found a man who told them that an unknown man with a handgun “had forcibly taken his vehicle.”

Police took the victim’s statement and offered medical assistance that Smith did not describe but said that the victim “requested no further medical attention.”

Smith did not provide information about the vehicle or the suspect or any other details about the incident. He said the investigation is “active and ongoing” by the Cobb Police Major Crimes Unit.
