GA: Domestic Defense, Woman Shoots Man in Front of Children

Preliminary information:  On 7/15/23 at around 11:07 p.m., Atlanta police responded to a person shot call at 201 Moury Ave SW.  Upon arrival, officers located a male with a gunshot wound.  He was transported to the hospital alert, conscious and breathing for further medical treatment.  A female, who was still on scene was identified as the shooter.

 

Further investigation revealed the male and female are known acquaintances who were engaged in a verbal dispute shortly before the shooting.  The verbal dispute led to the male physically assaulting the female in front of her children.  She then in turn produced a handgun and both fought over it when the gun discharged striking the male.

 

The female did not want to press charges for the assault; however the incident did occur in the presence of her children therefore the male, identified as 56-year-old Ricky Davis was charged with Cruelty to Children. He was later released from the hospital and transported to the Fulton County Jail.
