A DeKalb County police officer was shot and killed Friday during an active-shooter incident at a CVS across from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s main campus near Emory University, officials said.
Interim Police Chief Greg Padrick confirmed the death during an evening news conference, identifying the fallen officer as 33-year-old David Rose. Rose joined the department in September 2024 and served in the North Central precinct. He is survived by his wife, two children and a third child on the way.
“This officer responded to the call as he was trained to do,” Padrick said. “He was committed to serving the community. We ask for your prayers and your thoughts during this difficult time, especially for his family, his friends, his loved ones and the entire DeKalb County Police Department family.”
