  1. 0:26Evans explains that investigators are treating the incident as a domestic dispute rather than a hunting mishap.
  2. 1:16The hunter says six shots forced him to take cover; investigators recovered shell casings from the driveway.
  3. 1:41Evans reports that the arrested woman faces reckless conduct and drug possession charges.
  4. 2:08Another person was detained, but the report says only the woman faces charges connected to firing the weapon.
  5. 3:20Evans says no one was hurt.

A phone camera alerted the hunter to cars entering his driveway. He was in a deer stand in the woods when, according to FOX 5 Atlanta's report, shots were fired in his direction.

Reporter Doug Evans says the hunter had to take cover as six shots rang out. Investigators recovered shell casings from the driveway, and a woman was arrested. Evans reports that she faces reckless conduct and drug possession charges.

What initially sounded like a hunting mishap was being investigated as a domestic dispute, Evans explains. Another person was detained at the scene, but the report says only the woman faces charges connected to firing the weapon. No one was hurt.

The report drew about 32,000 views in nine hours, already well beyond the station's usual first-day audience for regular videos. It combines Evans's account of the investigation with police body-camera footage of the arrest, then returns to the danger of firing into woods where someone may be out of sight.
