On June 21, 2017 at the Home Lodge in Riverdale, RDPD responded to a call of a person being shot. Upon arrival officers found a female shot in the leg inside a hotel room.  Witnesses advised officers that the victim and the female shooter, Ashlee Martina Yvette Parker, were involved in a verbal altercation. A short time later Parker walked to her vehicle, pulled out a gun and started shooting in a busy parking lot. After multiple gun shots, the victim sustained a gunshot wound to her upper right thigh.

This morning, members of Sheriff Victor Hill's elite Fugitive Squad  located Parker at an apartment complex on Riverdale Road, College Park.  As an attempt was  to make contact Parker, the Fugitive Squad observed Parker and a male later identified as Jamal Thomas, walking around inside the apartment in a panic.    Since Parker and Thomas would not open the door, Squad members made entry into the apartment and apprehended Parker and Thomas without a fight.

Jamal Thomas, who is on Felony Probation, was arrested on the charges of Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon and Obstruction and Parker was arrested for Aggravated Assault with a deadly weapon.

Parker and her boyfriend Thomas are both now facing the wall at Georgia's toughest para-military jail.
