SOUTH FULTON COUNTY, Ga. — A drive-by shooting that damaged a South Fulton house is causing a lot of concerns for neighbors worried about crime.
The shooting happened just a day before someone stole a car from a homeowner in the same community of Lexington Park off Highway 92.
Three gunshots from the drive-by shooting have a South Fulton mother living in fear.
“For me, it was scary because it was, like, 'Who would do this?'" she said.
She asked not to be identified as she showed Channel 2's Matt Johnson the bullet holes in her front door and a front window.
One of the bullets went through a wall and is still in her living room couch.
She's thankful no one was hit by the bullets that flew through her home around 12:45 a.m. on April 2.
“I work hard for everything I have in this house, so that’s what’s so mind-boggling to me, that this happened to me,” she said.
The video from a neighbor's camera shows the bullets coming from what may be a dark-colored Mercedes G-class SUV.

“It gives me anxiety just watching the video,” she said.
Just around the corner, neighbor Wanesta Corretjer has crime concerns of her own.
“You're sitting in your house and you hear gunshots coming through your wall. I don’t know what I would do,” Corretjer said.
A camera above her garage captured someone opening her husband's car door and stealing the BMW 740 sedan a day after the drive-by shooting. The vehicle has yet to be found.
“They do have devices that unlock the cars if your key fob is nearby, so I don’t even know if we're safe anymore,” she said.
Johnson contacted South Fulton police and they told him they've increased patrols since the shooting.
In the meantime, victims in the subdivision say neighbors haven't been afraid to help keep an eye out, saying they are all looking out for each other.
Neighbors said they're taking a lot of steps on their end, including parking their cars in garages and installing more lights.
