Production On The First Season Was Halted By SWAT
Michael Rooker, who plays the lead, was seen on a rooftop during season one, armed with a rifle. Atlantans feared he was an active sniper and contacted the police as a result. In a short amount of time, SWAT arrived to end the ordeal. After assuring SWAT that Rooker was only acting in a scene as Merle Dixon and posed no danger to the public, the production team was able to resume filming. The information gathered by SWAT was sufficient, so Michael Rooker was never arrested as a threat to Atlanta.
