A routine afternoon commute on a MARTA train ended in tragedy on May 9, 2024, when 23-year-old Jah-Malik Marcano was shot while the eastbound train traveled between Hamilton E. Holmes and Georgia World Congress Center/CNN Center stations. The gunshot occurred in transit; Marcano was found with a gunshot wound when the train pulled into the station on Centennial Olympic Park Drive. Responding officers attempted life-saving measures, but his injuries were fatal and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

MARTA police circulated a photograph of a suspect to partner agencies, including the Georgia World Congress Center police and the Atlanta police, and issued a lookout bulletin. Neither the suspect’s identity nor that image has been released publicly, and no arrests have been announced. Officials have not disclosed a motive.
