CHATTAHOOCHEE HILLS, Ga. (AP) — Police have arrested a 17-year-old man for allegedly shooting a south Fulton County woman and beating her 1-year-old son during a home invasion.
Police arrested Antoine Wimes Tuesday for the Monday attack on Shenegua “Nikki” Neely. Police say Wimes and 21-year-old Donovan McCoy attacked Neely looking for money. McCoy was arrested Monday night.
Police said Wimes’ sister is Neely’s best friend. Chattahoochee Hills police Chief Damon Jones said the incident was drug- and gang-related.
