In the pre-dawn hours of October 7, 2022, 30-year-old Yvoris Snelling Jr. was shot and killed outside his South Fulton, Georgia, home on Shenfield Drive. He had returned from an overnight work shift at about 4:30 a.m., briefly gone inside, then stepped back out to his car when four gunshots were fired. His mother, who was inside the house, saw his car with the door open and, with two other sons, tried to render aid; Snelling’s injuries were fatal.

Police described the death as a shooting and had not identified suspects or a motive at the outset of the investigation. Family members said Snelling was a peaceful person devoted to his six-year-old daughter and hoped to become a graphic designer; they said he had no known enemies. Anyone who knew Yvoris, saw activity in the Shenfield Drive area that morning, or has information is asked to contact South Fulton police.
