ORIGINAL STORY: Woman shot in the head at Loganville CVS; person of interest in custody
The woman was airlifted to the hospital in critical condition, but police said Sunday she did not survive her injuries. She has been identified as 62-year-old Kimberly Whaley of Loganville.
A person of interest was taken into custody after Lawrenceville police spotted a vehicle matching a BOLO description tied to the shooting. A bicycle patrol officer identified the SUV downtown, and officers strategically boxed the vehicle in on West Crogan Street near Culver Street to prevent a chase. The driver was detained.
Authorities have not released details about the person of interest, or what may have led up to the shooting. Charges have not been announced.
If anybody has any information to share that could help in the investigation, please contact Sgt. Clint Kitchens with the LPD at 770-466-8087.
