One of AJ Jewell’s daughters is in critical condition in Grady hospital at this hour. Police say Asheley Jewell, 15, and other teens were riding in a car on Old National highway Saturday night when someone in another vehicle opened fire. Jewell (pictured above) was hit in the back of the head. She was transported to Grady hospital where she remains in a coma.

Police said road rage may be a possible motive in the case, according to Fox 5 News.

A.J. Jewell was once engaged to “Real Housewives of Atlanta” cast member Kandi Burruss. He died after a fight in the parking lot of a strip club in 2009. He left behind six kids.

“My heart feels heavy 2day,” Kandi Burruss tweeted on her Twitter page about Asheley. “I have my daughter & her friends so I’m trying to keep smiling but I’m worried about some1 else I care about.”
