RIVERDALE, Ga. (AP) - Police in metro Atlanta have arrested a woman in the shooting of a 9-year-old girl in metro Atlanta.

Investigators say the girl wounded in the shooting Friday at a home in Riverdale is expected to survive after being shot in the stomach and was able to identify the person who shot her before being airlifted to an Atlanta hospital.
