Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum said the shooter "fired at law enforcement and potentially the CDC." Schierbaum said police found the suspect on the second floor of a building housing a CVS store across the street.

Police in Atlanta say the suspect is dead after a shooting near Emory University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention headquarters.

The suspected gunman in the attack that killed a police officer near the Emory University campus and the CDC's headquarters was identified Saturday morning.
