In a somber turn of events, an Atlanta police officer has succumbed to injuries he sustained while attending to a shooting near the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Friday. Officer David Rose was wounded while responding to reports of a "single shooter," who has since been confirmed dead. Thankfully, no civilians were harmed during the confrontation. The circumstances surrounding the shooting remain unclear, however, speculations suggest that the gunman may have had concerns about his health following a coronavirus vaccination. Reports indicate that the shooter’s father had contacted authorities earlier, expressing fears about his son’s suicidal tendencies. CDC Director Susan Monarez conveyed her condolences, stating the center was devastated by the tragic event. Police responded promptly after receiving alerts of an active shooter situation around 4:50 PM local time. Per directives from law enforcement, the CDC urged employees to transition to remote work on Monday, as an ongoing investigation continues.
