Possible Gang-Related Shooting Led to Woman's Death in Norcross Area

A woman was shot and killed in unincorporated Norcross early Sunday in what police believe was an incident related to criminal street gang activity.

The woman, identified as 21-year-old Malia Arianne Ross-Robinson, was shot at 4161 Phil Niekro Parkway off Beaver Ruin Road around 4:15 a.m. Dec. 9. She was transported to a local hospital where she died from her injuries, according to a news release from Gwinnett County Police spokesman Cpl. Jake Smith.

"At this time, it appears that only Ross was struck," the release says.

Detectives believe that Ross-Robinson was a part of a group that was involved in an altercation with a second group at Liquid Ultra Lounge, a nightclub off Holcomb Bridge Road in Peachtree Corners. The altercation ended, but it started again at a nearby gas station.
