On Wednesday, December 7, 2022, just before noon, 23-year-old Eddie Figueroa of Kennesaw was shot outside the Walmart at Town Center Market in Kennesaw, Georgia. A dispute between two groups escalated and, amid initial fears of an active shooter, Figueroa was transported in a private vehicle to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital, where he died from his injuries.

The Cobb County Police Department described the shooting as the result of a targeted dispute and identified several persons of interest in the days after the incident, but no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly named. A tip hotline was released for anyone with information; beyond those initial steps, little has been made public about the investigation or the motive.

A viewing for Eddie Alberto Figueroa III was held December 14, 2022, at Heritage Funeral Home and Chapel in Marietta. If anyone was at Town Center Market that day or has information about the dispute or those involved, please contact the Cobb County Police Tip Hotline.
