ATLANTA -- A woman is dead after a domestic dispute Wednesday morning. When Atlanta police arrived, they found two people shot. Officers learned that a couple had been involved in a domestic altercation.
Police said the woman was attempting to stop the man from leaving by jumping on him, forcing him to the ground. As the two struggled, a gun in the man's pocket discharged, striking the man in the leg and the woman in the chest. They were both taken to Grady Memorial Hospital where the woman died. The investigation is being handled by the Atlanta Police Homicide Unit. Names are not being released at this time.

(NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
