A teenager was arrested Thursday, roughly two weeks after authorities said he shot a man in the abdomen at a northwest Atlanta MARTA station.
Gabriel Webb-Williams, 17, was armed with a handgun at about 7:45 a.m. when MARTA officers took him into custody at the West Lake station for the Aug. 13 shooting at the Hamilton E. Holmes station, according to spokesperson Stephany Fisher.
Both MARTA and Atlanta police had been searching for Webb-Williams, who authorities said was considered “armed and dangerous.”
“Thanks to the efforts of everyone involved in the apprehension of this dangerous criminal,” Fisher said in a statement.
Webb-Williams is accused of shooting the victim in the bus loop at the station at about 1:45 p.m. Police said the gunfire erupted during a fight in the taxi pick-up
