By
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The
wife of an Atlanta police officer who works in the city's Zone 4 precinct shot
and killed a would-be robber early today in the couple's Midtown apartment,
police said.
Investigators
were not releasing any information regarding the shooting, but said the woman
will not be arrested.
Maj.
Ted Hall, commander of the Atlanta police Criminal Investigations Division,
declined to release any information about the officer or his wife.
One of
the officer's partners said he and the young woman had just married two months
ago, and he recently bought his wife a firearm for protection.
