Atlanta Airport Shooting: Delta Airlines Employee Killed In Staff Parking Lot
A Delta Air Lines employee died Sunday after a shooting in a staff parking lot of Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
Alexis Reed, 30, a ramp agent for the airline, was found unresponsive in the airport’s parking lot at around 10:30 p.m. after she was struck by multiple gunshots. Reed died from injuries on the way to a local hospital.
“The incident is being investigated as a homicide,” the College Park Police Department said in a statement. “There are no suspects in custody at this time.”
“The Delta family is grieving the loss of one of our own this morning,” Delta spokeswoman Chelsea Gorman said in an official statement. “Late last night, an Atlanta colleague passed away after a shooting at the Camp Creek employee parking lot. We share our deepest condolences with both family and friends. Delta is currently conducting an investigation, in partnership with law enforcement.”
It is unclear what led to the shooting. The parking lot where Reed was killed is known to be accessible only by Delta employees.
“We are not able to release more information at this time as the investigation is ongoing,” police said.
