‘This subject decided this was a better way to do it. He was small enough to get through the window at the time,’ DeKalb police Lt. Lonzy Robertson said.
‘I go there every night to get something to eat. It’s just crazy,’ Ju Washington said.
‘I hope they get him. They need to get him. There could have been kids in the car. Anybody could have gotten shot.’
