A man and a woman were found shot Wednesday near a children’s learning center in southwest Atlanta in an apparent murder-suicide, police said.
Officers were called to the area of 80 Brevard Avenue around 10:15 a.m. and found a woman with a gunshot wound, according to officials. A man was also located with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police added.
The Ms. Niecys Home Away From Home Learning Center is right around the corner on Old Hapeville Road.
Investigators said the incident was domestic in nature and confirmed that the man was the victim’s partner. They were both pronounced dead at the scene. They were identified as 38-year-old La Nona Palmer and 42-year-old David Palmer by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office.
