Darius Arnold, 38, was killed on the night of August 11, 2022, in the Scottsdale area of DeKalb County. Police found his body in a grassy area behind an apartment building on Hatton Drive; he had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting grew out of a dispute over a mutual female acquaintance. Two people were identified as suspects: 27-year-old Zaria Jones and 21-year-old Jacquez McDonald. Jones was arrested the same day; McDonald was taken into custody two days later. Both were charged with homicide and booked into the DeKalb County Jail.

Records show Jones had filed for a temporary protective order against Arnold in 2021; that request was later dismissed. It is not clear whether McDonald and Arnold knew each other before the shooting. Does anyone have information about Arnold’s activities in the Scottsdale area or the people involved that could help this investigation?
