He waived his right to a first appearance in court, which had been set for Thursday morning, the jail supervisor said. Patterson faces one count of murder and four counts of aggravated assault, Fulton County jail records show. The suspect used a handgun in the attack, authorities said, before fleeing on foot and hijacking a vehicle nearby. The suspected gunman, 24-year-old Deion Patterson, went inside Northside Medical Midtown just before noon and shot the first victim shortly after, Atlanta Police Deputy Chief Charles Hampton said. After a nearly eight-hour manhunt Wednesday, authorities captured the suspect who is accused of fatally shooting a woman and wounding four other people in an Atlanta medical building.
