APD officer wanted for murder, arrested at airport

HAPEVILLE, Ga. —

Hapeville police have arrested an Atlanta police officer wanted on murder charges.

Police issued a wanted poster for Tahreem Zeus Rana, 23, on Wednesday.

They say he is a city of Atlanta police officer and their No. 1 suspect in the death of 26-year-old Vernicia Woodard.

A Hapeville city worker found Woodard’s body on fire along Elm Street on Friday.

The GBI was called in to help, and investigators say the body was lit on fire in an effort to destroy evidence.

Officers arrested Rana around 8:30 a.m. Thursday at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. They say he was headed to Monterey, Mexico, which may have been a stop on the way to India. Rana was on the no-fly list.
