33-year-old woman dies after being shot in head in SW Atlanta

ATLANTA — A murder scene spilled over onto Cleveland Avenue on Friday night after someone shot a woman to death in front of a restaurant.

The shooting happened about 6:30 p.m. in the 300 block of Cleveland Avenue, Atlanta police spokeswoman TaSheena Brown said. When officers arrived at the scene, the woman had already died.

Channel 2's Matt Johnson was at the scene, where officers were collecting the bullet casings along the roadway.

"We have some theories on what occurred, and we have some evidence and leads we're following up on," said Atlanta Police Major Dan Rasmussen.

Investigators are hoping to look through surveillance video that may help them identify a suspect and a motive.

"We have little to go right now with this investigation. We're asking for the help of the general population," Rasmussen said.
