On the morning of June 14, 2022, Eurl Kittles, a 42-year-old Black man from Augusta, was shot inside the Captain D’s on Wrightsboro Road. Richmond County deputies responded to a report of a shooting at about 9:25 a.m.; the coroner later pronounced Kittles dead at the scene at 10:20 a.m. Local reports described him as working in the restaurant; another report identified him as a maintenance worker who also owned a club and was known by the nickname Black Hollywood.

Authorities publicly named Ravanell Gomillion as the person wanted in connection with the killing and announced charges of murder, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Reporting said investigators believed Gomillion came to the restaurant because he suspected his girlfriend was there and that Kittles was shot during that confrontation; follow-up reports said Gomillion was later arrested in connection with the death.

Kittles’ obituary noted funeral services at the end of June and burial in Sylvania. Did anyone see or hear anything at the Captain D’s that morning that might help clarify what happened?
