Malik Leek Grover was a 14-year-old Black boy killed in southwest Atlanta on December 17, 2022, when gunfire erupted at the Retreat at Greenbriar Apartments on Continental Colony Parkway. The shooting followed a dispute investigators said began on social media and escalated into a face-to-face confrontation in the complex parking lot. Justin Powell, 16, was also killed; three other young people, including two teenagers and an 11-year-old, were wounded and taken to hospital.

Public reports identify Grover as being from Fayetteville even though he died in Atlanta. Family described him as funny, athletic, and loved — a boy who enjoyed football, basketball, soccer, and acting. Authorities secured warrants on December 23, 2022, for 19-year-old Montavious Ferguson, who turned himself in December 30 and was publicly charged in connection with Justin Powell’s murder. As of the latest reporting cited, no one had been publicly arrested or charged specifically for Malik Grover’s killing and investigators said the search for a second shooter was ongoing.

Did anyone in the area see what happened in the parking lot that night or have information about the second shooter?
