A suspected burglar was fatally shot during a shootout with Smyrna and Cobb County police officers at Adventure Outdoors, a gun store on South Cobb Drive.

According to Smyrna Police Chief Keith Zgonc, multiple 911 calls were received around midnight reporting a burglary at the store and shots fired nearby. When officers arrived, they were met with gunfire from the suspect inside the store. An exchange of fire ensued, resulting in the suspect’s death.

Two Smyrna police officers were injured during the shootout but are expected to survive. A SWAT team was deployed to secure the store and ensure there were no other individuals inside.

The motive behind the burglary remains under investigation. The suspect’s identity has not been released, and his body will be sent to the Cobb County Medical Examiner’s Office for an autopsy.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has been called in to review the use of force by the officers involved, which is standard procedure in such incidents.

Adventure Outdoors is known as the world’s largest gun store.
