Early Monday morning gunfire at a home in the Cedar Creek subdivision in east Athens resulted in one death and two people wounded, according to Athens-Clarke County police.

The shootings were the result of a domestic dispute as the suspect, who died at the scene, and a woman at the house had a prior relationship, according to police spokesman Geoffrey Gilland.

The shootings were reported at 7:28 a.m. in a home on Ponderosa Drive, police said.

“The female victim was leaving to go to work when the male suspect put a gun to her head and pushed her back into the house,” Gilland said.

Gilland would not say what happened next, but the suspect, identified as Quincy Davis, 44, was shot and killed by a man in the house. This man and another male were wounded by gunfire, police said.

There were four residents in the house at the time of the shootings, according to Gilland.

The seriousness of the wounds to the men was not released, but both were transported to a local hospital, according to Gilland.

Gilland said he didn’t know how many shots were fired during the exchange between Davis and one of the male victims.

Police did not know Davis’ current address, but his body was sent for an autopsy.

Further details were not immediately released on Monday.
