In the early hours of Christmas Eve, an encampment near Dorsey Street in Gainesville, Georgia, was the scene of a fatal shooting. Ashley Marie Hill, 33, was found dead by police shortly before 4 a.m. on December 24, 2024. A second person, 36-year-old Marcus Robinson, was wounded and taken to Northeast Georgia Medical Center.

Witnesses and other occupants of the camp identified 37-year-old Demetrius Few of Gainesville as the suspected shooter. Law enforcement located and arrested Few nearby; he was booked into the Hall County Jail and has been charged with malice murder and aggravated assault. Investigators said additional charges may follow, and no motive has been released.

Ashley Cherie Hill, born January 24, 1991, in Gainesville, was a mother of three, remembered for her love of music, singing, dancing and time with family. Does anyone who knew Ashley or was near the Dorsey Street encampment that night have information to share with investigators?
