Maria Nunez McDaniel, 29, was fatally shot inside Julia’s Hair Salon in the Crossroads Shopping Center near the Paulding–Cobb county line in Georgia on March 24, 2014. A native of the Dominican Republic, she was killed in a targeted attack carried out by her husband.

According to reports, 45-year-old Robert Steven McDaniel entered the busy salon around noon, specifically sought out his wife, and opened fire, killing her at the scene. After the shooting he walked into the parking lot and surrendered to deputies from Paulding and Cobb who were nearby and having lunch. He was taken into custody without incident and charged with murder; investigators also charged him in an assault on another person who had been at the salon, Julia Olmos.
