Police and SWAT teams surrounded a Midtown Atlanta hotel on Tuesday afternoon following reports from witnesses who heard multiple gunshots.

Georgia authorities confirmed the suspect was armed, according to Metro.

Guests and residents at the Four Seasons were instructed to shelter in place, while visitors were urged to stay away from the area.

At 3:52 p.m., the Atlanta Police Department posted on X (formerly Twitter), "Citizens within sight of the Four Seasons Hotel are advised to avoid any windows and rooms facing the area."
