After a triple shooting Monday afternoon in Midtown Atlanta, two men are dead, and one is in the hospital.
Two people were shot at a condo building on West Peachtree Street, where the shooting began. A few blocks away on Peachtree, another victim was shot.
Following reports of an active shooter, Atlanta police, SWAT teams, and K9s swarmed Peachtree Street near Colony Square.
The suspect was identified as Raissa Kengne with assistance from witnesses and an integrated city camera system. Following the release of a surveillance image from MARTA, Kengne was eventually detained and taken into custody at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
“Micheal Shinners was an above and beyond building manager. He was loved by our community. The events today are shocking, and he can never be replaced. We are deeply saddened,” said Brian Hall, a resident of 1280 West.
According to Beacon Management Services, Mike Horne, the third shooting victim, is currently in the ICU and will need additional surgeries.
Property managers informed all residents of the shooting that occurred at 1 pm.
During a press conference, police said that it seemed like Kengne specifically targeted all three victims.
