ATLANTA (AP) - Police have found the gray Mustang belonging to a
man accused of killing a repo man and wounding another while they
tried to repossess the car.

Fulton County police spokesman Sgt. Scott McBride say officers
found the car Thursday night behind a warehouse in Clayton County
just south of Atlanta. Police are still searching for 29-year-old
Justin Moore, who is suspected of killing 27-year-old Brandon
Thomas early Thursday morning.

Police say Moore also wounded 36-year-old Willie Thackston. He
remains in fair condition at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta.

Authorities say Moore began firing a shotgun at the two repo men
after they had loaded his car on their tow truck. They drove away,
but he chased them in another car and ran them off the road.
