No one was hurt, but Polk County Police investigators are asking for the public’s help after a Wednesday evening shooting incident saw two teens fired upon while walking down the road by two men in a vehicle.
Per a release this evening from the PCPD, a 17-year-old male and a 15-year-old female and Rockmart High student were walking down Old Vinson Mountain Road in Rockmart when a black Infiniti Qx50 pulled by the pair and fired several shots.
Police reported that their investigation found that the male teen had a handgun and returned fire, then fled into the woods after. No one was injured in the incident.
Officers who responded and began investigating questioned neighbors and caught up with the male teen, and spent today interviewing the two teens, witnesses and canvassed the area for surveillance footage.
Police found a brief shot (seen above) of the Infiniti SUV in the area of Old Vinson Mountain Road fleeing from the area Wednesday evening around 6:40 p.m.

Investigators have also included the above stock photo of the SUV to help people understand the shape of the vehicle in question.
