This is a breaking news situation.
A man entered a courtroom in the Fulton County Courthouse this morning and shot a Fulton County Sheriff's deputy, a clerk and a judge; there are reports from both WSB and WAGA, the judge is deceased.
The perp has carjacked multiple vehicles -- now on his third -- and is still at large.
I've just come from downtown Atlanta, and the city is a madhouse.

I just got off the phone with my wife, to make sure she locked down her building (which is only a few blocks away).
The entire downtown area is cordoned off.

thanks for posting this. FRN is reporting a Judge and a Deputy shot. Nothing mentioned about a clerk.
They're saying the Judge is dead, altho it hasn't been confirmed.
Now showing clip of an ambulance with a police escort.
New report coming on mentioning a clerk being shot.
Courthouse is in a lockdown.

well this is going to be a lively friday

Luckily, traffic this morning is lighter, as most school systems are out today; traffic is expected to pick up in about an hour or so, as the SEC Tournament is underway at the Georgia Dome though.
