Does anybody know who got shot? I used to hang in Da Bomb all the time. It was a tragedy, none the less, but I'm concerned if it was somebody I may have known

Whatever happened to really appreciating and respecting life. Many of you have made comments as if this was not a human life. I knew this person and he didn't deserve to die this way. I wonder how you'd feel if I wrote similar comments about your loved ones or friend(s).
Well,'Actually' I did know this person. And, people who live right, finish high school (college), have children, marry beautiful people, have decent jobs (yada, yada, yada) do find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time. Better yet, they find themselves having to deal with ignorant, pompous, inadequate males who'd rather settle their inadequacies with guns. I hope your family and friends don't find themselves writing about your ignorant "..." sooner than later.

Yeah, keep your hopes for yourself, that is NOT something me or mine have to worry about...we DON'T every find ourselves at the wrong place at the wrong time becaue we think before we act, we take personal responsibility for our actions and we live right, do right and do not go near scum...we stay safe and take care of ourselves...so nice try and I am sorry about your friend but seriously...no one I know would go to a place called DA BOMB to eat... then name say enough to know to steer clear...so good day.

It is not right for the media to be filling in the blanks to the story without getting all the facts There was never a weapon inside the restaraunt. The shots came from outside by the back door the security pulled the vitim inside to protect him. this was a random act of violence that could have happen anywhere. The bigger problem is why it took paramedics 20 minutes to get there when there is a fire station 5 minutes away

If you go to a place called "Da Bomb Wings" , your taking your life into your own hands on several levels.
Da bomb is a slang term meaning the best, absolutely superb. Our award winning wings are dabomb, hence the name. We have been around for 10 years and have multiple locations in the Atlanta metro area.

To Clarify......

A young lady was dancing-which includes booty shaking, grinding, etc in 2008-with John Hoover in an effort to anger her boyfriend, which she successfully did. He hit John with a bottle and a fight ensued. Security broke up the fight and removed all parties, taking the offenders out the front entrance and Mr Hoover out the back. The fool went to his car, retrieved his weapon and went to the back and shot Mr. Hoover. Security grabbed Mr. Hoover and brought him back into the building. 911 was called. We were placed on hold and after requesting assistance, it took 20 minutes for an ambulance to arrive. Keep in mind there is a hospital within a 4 min drive and a fire station within a 2 min drive. Mr Hoover, unfortunately died enroute to the hospital.

I take offense to that. I am the owner of the business. I am an upwardly mobile, under forty, independent single, black mother. I am an educated and conscious sister. I attended some of the best schools and colleges in the country. After being laid off from the Coca-Cola Co, I decided to create my own job and jobs for 40+ other individuals.

John Hoover was our family, not only was he a regular customer, but also a former employee. It is a shame that something this senseless would happen to such a good man. When are our people going to wake up and stop killing each other over nothing.

Somehow I seiously doubt you are anywhere near the shooting site, probably locked in a subdivision behind a guard gate nestled inside your panic room

And just because my isp shows tyrone, doesn't mean I am there

Well Tressa;
If you have to have security, that's your first problem, second of all, if there was this type of confrontation,"YOU" should have called the police,you and your so-called security team, will and probably be sued over this. And hopefully, run your dram-shop, so high, you can't pay for it, if you even have it! So, hopefully, you can handle all that, as a educated, well off person, that you say, you are. I've been in your place, nothing to be bragging about! Alot of drugs and problems, do yourself a favor, CLOSE IT!!!

This man was a great friend of mine. I have known him for almost 30 years. We grew up together. I am saddened by his untimely death and my heart goes out to his family. I remember as a kid his mother always called him "Pumpkin" LOL He was a good man and fellow military member. I will miss him.
