The city of Atlanta is grappling with a new tragedy after the body of 35-year-old Chanell M. Crosby was discovered in a vehicle at the West End MARTA Station on Friday afternoon. Crosby, who had been reported missing earlier in the week, was identified by the Atlanta Police Department, according to a report by Atlanta News First. MARTA Police Department were notified about a car that smelled bad, prompting an immediate investigation into a disturbing discovery.

Details surrounding Crosby's death remain scant, as the Atlanta Police Department has not released much information. However, they have led the call for public assistance, urging anyone with information to come forward. A statement obtained by FOX 5 Atlanta confirmed that the officers found an "obstructed item" in the backseat of the car, later determined to be Crosby's corpse. This announcement hits the community hard, the same one still reeling for, Crosby's family who lost their 13-year-old son, Jamiren, in September 2022.

His murder remains unresolved, with investigators continuing their search for a person of interest seen with the child in video footage the day before his body was found, as FOX 5 Atlanta detailed in their coverage.

Officers from both the MARTA Police Department and Atlanta Police Department were seen meticulously canvassing the parking lot where Crosby's body was found, looking for evidence that could shed light on the events leading up to her death. The investigation is ongoing and, the authorities remain tight-lipped about potential leads or suspects at this stage.
