Atlanta man faces two counts of murder

By
ATLANTA - An Atlanta man faces two counts of murder after police stopped a car dragging a woman&#39;s body along Interstate 20 and found another person dead inside. <br> <br> Authorities were responding to a call of shots fired yesterday when they saw a yellow Chevrolet Caprice pulling away with what appeared to be a person hanging out of it. <br> <br> Atlanta Police Sergeant Keith Meadows says officers followed the car less than a mile on Interstate 20, where the driver pulled into the median and stopped the car. Police say the driver attempted to flee but was apprehended. <br> <br> Inside the vehicle, police found a man dead of a gunshot wound. <br> <br> Meadows says the woman - who had been dragged by the car - had been shot. <br> <br> He says the two victims apparently gave the suspect a ride to an apartment complex about 3 a.m. <br> <br> The sergeant says the suspect pulled a gun and shot both the man who was driving and the woman passenger when the three arrived at the complex. <br> <br> Police say there&#39;s a possibility the shootings were drug related. They have not released the name of the suspect.
