Suspect arrested in shooting death of a 6-month-old baby boy in Atlanta

 

                                                                        Dequasie Little - Suspect.

Atlanta police on Tuesday arrested a 22-year-old man in the shooting death of a 6-month-old baby. 

Mayor Andre Dickens announced the arrest during a news conference Tuesday afternoon, praising police for their quick work in making an arrest. “They were all over the place asking and looking for clues," Dickens said. "They worked 24 hours nonstop until they resolved this issue and now a suspect is under arrest.”

Tips from the community, according to Atlanta Police Chief Rodney Bryant, lead to the arrest of  the suspect . Grayson Matthew Fleming-Gray was in the back seat when his mother told police the occupants of two cars starting firing gunshots. A bullet went through the trunk striking the infant. He was pronounced dead at Grady Memorial Hospital.

The mayor called on members of the community to advocate for people to put guns down and advocate for the resolution of conflicts by de-escalation. 

“The issue of gun violence is gripping this nation and is gripping this city, and I’m here to say right now enough is enough. Enough is enough," he said.
