A man is behind bars, two days after a woman was found seriously injured from a gunshot wound at a northwest Atlanta gas station.

Maquell Jordan, 29, was quickly identified as a suspect in Tuesday morning’s shooting and has been charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. He was booked into the Fulton County Jail later that day.

This gray Jeep was part of Tuesday's investigation outside a Citgo, where a woman was found in critical condition.

Police responded to a Citgo station on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive shortly before 2 a.m. regarding the wounded woman and learned the shooting occurred along Sandy Creek Drive. She was taken to the hospital in critical condition. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has asked for an update on her condition.
