Ze’kevious Perry was wanted for his suspected involvement in the shooting on Edgewood Avenue in July 2025.
One person was killed and 10 others were injured.
Agents said they found Perry at a home in Montgomery, Alabama.
He was charged in April with one count of Felony Murder and 10 counts of Felony Aggravated Assault in Fulton County, and state warrants were issued for his arrest.
Investigators say members of two rival gangs got into an argument that escalated into gunfire.

The man killed was identified by family as Santos Wyatt, a 27-year-old father.
Wyatt’s mother, Colandra Atkinson, told Channel 2’s Eryn Rogers the past nearly 14 months have been hard but the news of the arrest is welcomed.
“I’m over excited. I’m glad that all three are off the street. I’m just ready to go. Let’s just go to trial and get justice for my son,” Atkinson said.
Rico Arnold, 19, was arrested days later and charged with one count of murder and 10 counts of aggravated assault.
Nasir Williams was arrested by FBI agents in August and also faces one count of murder and 10 counts of aggravated assault.
Williams has a bond hearing on Monday.
