Just before 1 p.m., Cobb officers were dispatched to I-75 north of Wade Green Road because a tractor-trailer was blocking the road. The driver of the truck had been shot at least twice by another driver who fled after the shooting, Cobb police spokesperson Sgt. Wayne Delk said. All northbound lanes were shut down until roughly 2:30 p.m. The truck driver was taken to a local hospital with serious injuries. Delk said they don't have a suspect or suspect vehicle description for release yet.
