Woman Killed In Grayson Shooting ID'd As New Mother

GRAYSON — The woman who was fatally shot Friday while attending a Chance Lane house party was identified Tuesday as Shania Green, 18, of Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County Police said.

Officers responded to the scene around 1 a.m., when they evacuated the home and found the woman dead.

A GoFundMe established by Sade Long, who identified herself as Green's aunt, has raised more than $5,000 to go toward Green's funeral and burial.

Long said Green was a new mother who died after shots fired from outside of the house hit Green, who was inside of the home.

"Our beloved Shania Green recently passed tragically. Shania was a wonderful daughter, mother, sister, granddaughter and niece who touched the lives of everyone around her. She was known for her beautiful infectious smile and her laughter. She had such a positive energy that she brought everywhere she went. On most days, you could find her lovingly taking care of her 7 month old son or spending time with family. Shania just turned 18-years-old last month in November. She was just figuring out who she was as a young lady and as a new mother, navigating life with grace, compassion and kindness. ... Shania has truly left an impact on every one she has met. Her glowing personality and respectful manner has left so many people hurting and mourning for such an amazing soul," Long wrote on the GoFundMe.

Police did not release details of a possible suspect or the circumstances of the shooting.
