A quiet hotel parking lot just after 2:00 a.m. in the morning. Morrow police are dispatched to the [music] Red Roof Inn on South Lake Plaza Drive for a report of a person shot in the head. No name, no age, no clear story, only that a gun has gone off at a motel just off the interstate. They don't know exactly what happened, but by the time officers reach the Red Roof Inn, everyone involved [music] is already gone. They didn't wait for police. They didn't wait for EMS. They had already left the property [music] and rushed the victim to Southern Regional Medical Center. And when officers arrive at the hospital, [music] the entire case shifts because this isn't an adult. This isn't a parking lot fight. [music] This isn't just another late-night motel argument that turned into gunfire. The victim is a child. A little boy has been shot in the head. According to the report, doctors [music] said the bullet entered through his forehead and exited near the top of his head. He would later be airlifted to Scottish Rite and rushed [music] into emergency surgery. Now, the questions begin. How does a child get shot inside a vehicle? Where were his [music] parents? Who brought the gun? Why was a loaded firearm within reach of children? And why did everyone leave the motel before first responders [music] ever arrived? The father, Terrell Orr, tells officers he was inside the SUV [music] when the shot went off. He says he was trying to pull up a video on his phone for his son when he heard the gunshot, [music] looked over, and saw his child slumped over. But almost immediately, officers notice problems. >> [music] >> They report finding a 9-mm magazine in Terrell Orr's pocket. Investigators [music] later recover a 9-mm handgun from inside the vehicle. And according to the boy's mother, >> [music] >> Terrell was heavily intoxicated that night and didn't even realize he had a gun with him. Then, investigators obtained the hotel surveillance video, >> [music] >> and that video forces them to look at the father's story much more closely. According to the report, the footage shows moments that raise new [music] questions about exactly where Terrell was, what the child was doing, and what happened in the seconds before the gun went off. What starts as a tragic [music] shooting now becomes a search for the missing piece. Did this child somehow find the gun and shoot himself? Was this reckless [music] negligence, or is there more to the story? Tonight, you're going to see how [music] officers responded, how the father described what happened, and how the evidence [music] slowly began pushing this investigation in a different direction. What began [music] as person shot in the head at a motel becomes something more focused, a 3-year-old boy shot, a loaded handgun in a [music] family vehicle, and a story that may not match what the cameras and the evidence show. In this video, you're going to see how [music] that night unfolds through the lens of responding officers and investigators. You'll hear what the father says happened, you'll see what police find, and you can decide for yourself [music] what you think took place at that Red Roof Inn.

Mom's in there. She left the other kids at the hotel room. 15-year-old 13-year-old and 9-month-old or 9-month That's not a bullet going to be right there in the ceiling or the roof of the car. >> Are you to Scotland? >> How far is that? >> It ain't going to be me going. >> So Are you going to 45? >> Anybody is going to be one of the detectives that we're trying to call in. >> It was a 19 alert. 29 minutes. >> Yeah, this part most likely will be detectives going. Where did the bullet enter now? Yeah, let me ask you a question. You think a kid did that? He's drunk He's drunk as piss. >> Based on the trajectory? Possible. >> I think it probably happened. >> Fo For uh and Fortune's over at the jail right now. Cuz there's I didn't know where this is the place, so there's blood all over the parking lot. But it's what he told that happened. He took the baby out and he ran upstairs with the baby. So that's the reason why there's a blood trail going up to the room. Mom said she grabbed the baby, saw that he was shot. She called 911. They hopped in the car, came back over here. So >> What's his name? >> Hm? >> You got the kid's name? >> I ain't got that far. You asked the mom. Mom can't remember [ __ ] right now cuz she's in a daze. So she didn't even fill out the paperwork for the kid yet. She just said he was 3 years old. So >> Did you get that information? Did you get all that information? We don't need to go back to Knights Red Roof Inn, do you? I mean, do you need anything from there? Cuz everything took place in the car. 2607 to 2611. I hear clear to leave the Red Roof Inn. Come up to 22G. Yeah, we're we're going to work that out. Yeah, we We'll work that out. He's in the back of the car. He ain't going nowhere right now. He got warrants on top of that. And he's been drinking, so >> Yeah. This story isn't >> It don't make sense to me either. He won't He ain't told me the full story yet. >> I know, cuz he he he he it sound like Yeah, I was busy and it sound like he was all over the place. >> Yeah. >> It did not make any sense. Just not right. >> Where did the bullet enter? Exactly. >> Uh right above the right eye and it came out right there. >> All right. >> And there's brain matter in the hair. >> Yes, it's all over the ceiling, too. So >> Although for a positive in all this, once I gave him pure oxygen, he started moving around crying. >> Okay. >> I I actually, you know, which means that like the body's getting good oxygen, but the brain was not for a momentary time of shock. And what now that he's sedated now, so we can't really give him a neuro exam and tell you the outcome, what what the prognosis would would look like. But, that's a good sign when I was able to give oxygen. He get whimpering and starting to cry. >> Okay. >> But, I don't think I still don't think he's going to come out well. >> Uh I kind of guessed at it, too. >> I'm never going to forget. This is my second GSW of a kid here. 5-year-old that shot himself here in the neck with a .40. How does a 5-year-old have the strength in his thumb to turn it on himself? >> That's the reason I questioned it. That's the reason I questioned this one. >> What what size >> Yeah, when it's three Yeah. >> What what What kind of gun is it? >> Just by the looks of it, I think it's a 9 9-mm. >> I think it's a Ruger LCP. >> So, >> That's a hard trigger to pull. >> Hey, what's up, man? Yeah, he answered the phone. Yeah, so he's tracking and skill is here. They're going to airlift him up to I forgot the name of the hospital, like 40 minutes away. But, it went through the forehead out top of the head, and doc said don't look don't look too good. And And dad's And dad's drunk on top of that, too. All right, then. Didn't mean to wake you up, but you the Key I I would have called Key, but he's on vacation, so. All right, then. We'll do. Appreciate it. All right, bye. What he said, accidental assuming a grown man shot himself. >> Yeah. >> He didn't forgot to say he's three or when I walked in it was probably like a three-year-old. Hey, what's up, fellas? No, no, no. Hey, you take all that down. Don't worry about Red Roof Inn. It all took place in a car. We got the gun and we got the bullet hole. I just need you to come up here. All right. Fellas. Fortune's going to take his sweet time coming over here. As soon as this happened, he just went to the gym. So. My question is, is dad even allowed to have a handgun right now? And I want to know if you think a three-year-old can pull a trigger. Good question. You want to go back to the room? Change your clothes? Then we'll can take you down there? Say that one more time. All right, we'll get we'll get you down there. Do you want to go back to the hotel and check on them? All right. The rescue should be right there. >> Hey, I know you're busy. >> I just made >> Is that Dr. Rafferty? >> The doctor's name. What's his name? >> Dr. Rafferty. Dr. Rafferty. R A F >> already know about that. It's that R A F >> E E >> E E >> D >> D >> I E >> I E >> I think it's Rafferty. Yeah, I think that's how you spell his name. Did you get a statement from the lady? >> The mother? She didn't even She didn't even say anything. It was all dad. It was all father. >> Shot then he got shot then she drove home and picked up the mom? >> No, so they're in the parking lot of Red Roof Inn. >> He just He just >> And he was sitting in the car with the kid. She was upstairs with her and the kid. And what he said makes sense so he took the kid, ran upstairs to her. She is the one that called 911. >> Yeah. >> So Where they're going to be heading? >> Whatever man. >> Scottish right? Scottish right? >> Yeah, it's over at 4285. Do you need directions to the guy? >> You got the address? >> Yeah, I did but come out. >> Which one? This one? No, that thing ain't going nowhere. I think they [ __ ] up. >> Got to be behind. >> I'll tell you where it says. >> 11152 Chamblee Road 7819. You can step out for two. >> I think it's secure. >> Other people are good though. >> Huh? >> Other people are good. >> Yeah. That guy's freaking out. >> I think he's good. >> Curry old son right here. Went outside of his head. The bullet went through his hand and kept going and then the other dude went Damn. Dude is strong. Dude is 83. Dude is black as [ __ ] So, all that I was going to kill him fortunately he did. Actually I might kill Take me right back to the hotel. Take a little gift when you take it out to the get it going. >> So, you want me to take the check out down to the >> Yeah. >> Fortune might be stuck on where he's at. >> I'm on a four-minute right now. So, I'm pretty sure the dude is strong where he's where he's at. >> Why I told him. Why we not charging him with a deadly conduct? >> Uh don't know yet. >> Because he was with the kids, right? >> Yeah. >> Well, at least charge him something. >> Well, see how the dude is acting right now. >> Okay. Hey, that's a good learning for Fortune today. Yeah, I mean blood was I saw I rolled up halfway up there and then somehow he went back to the park. Okay, so it so it makes sense with the blood everywhere because I saw it stopped some somewhere halfway. But um how the kid got a gun in the first place? So he was laying with the car? Oh my god. >> Yeah. I ain't going to answer no more questions. I'm going to tell them everything. >> Yeah. >> So right now he's got to go. >> Well, right now it's all that Calvin over here can turn over to him then.
