Marvin Sintell Swan, 40, was fatally shot outside the Waters at Gateway apartment complex in Savannah on December 11, 2022. Police were called about a disorderly person at about 10:30 p.m.; officers found Swan with multiple gunshot wounds near the leasing office. Despite medical attention, he died and his death was investigated as a homicide.

Swan’s longtime girlfriend, who lived with him at the complex, said she was in bed and heard noises she first took for fireworks. After trying to reach him, a bystander answered his phone and told her where he was. She ran outside and discovered him on the ground; she said she did not know who would want to harm him. The shooting reportedly followed an argument, but the circumstances of that dispute are unclear.

The Savannah Police Department asked the public for help identifying the person or persons responsible. At the time of the initial reports no suspects had been identified or arrested and there have been no public updates about the investigation. Did anyone near the Waters at Gateway that night see something that could help?
