A 17-year-old is in custody in connection with the shooting death
earlier this month of Koko Da Doll, an Atlanta woman who gained
notice in a documentary about transgender Black women and the
dangers they face, police said Thursday.

The teenager faces charges of murder and aggravated assault in the
death of the 35-year-old transgender woman, also known as Rasheeda
Williams. The teenager surrendered to officers at a precinct in
northwest Atlanta on Wednesday, identifying himself as the person of
interest being sought in the case, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
reported.

Police had previously released surveillance images of a man wearing
a sports jersey walking up to the entrance of an apartment building.
Authorities said detectives wanted to identify the person “to assist
with the current investigation on the homicide.”

The teenager said he was the man in the photos, but he denied
shooting anyone, according to an arrest warrant obtained by the
newspaper.

A witness said she saw Williams arguing with a man before hearing
gunshots. The witness said she ran over to help.

In addition to the murder and assault charges, the teenager faces a
count of possessing a gun during the commission of a felony. He is
being held in the Fulton County Jail. It was unknown if he has an
attorney who could speak on his behalf.
