Serenity Taylor was 21 and from Atlanta when she was killed by gunfire on June 23, 2024, near 56 Baker Drive SW in the Glenrose Heights area. Officers responded about 3:33 p.m. to a report of a person shot and found two adults with gunshot wounds; Taylor was pronounced dead at the scene and an adult man was taken to hospital while alert and breathing.

Local television reports described a confrontation earlier that day: police said a suspected shooter and his girlfriend went to a house to confront a man who had allegedly fought with the suspect’s mother, and gunfire erupted during that confrontation. Reports indicated the woman with the suspected shooter was the person killed, placing Taylor at the center of the street confrontation rather than a distant bystander.

Police identified the incident as a homicide investigation, but no publicly named suspect, arrest, charge, indictment, trial, or conviction was reported. Funeral arrangements list a viewing on July 8, 2024, and a Celebration of Life on July 9 at Willie A. Watkins Funeral Home’s Historic West End Chapel, with burial at South-View Cemetery.

If anyone knew Serenity or witnessed the events on Baker Drive on June 23, information could be important to investigators.
