Seventeen-year-old Drevion Matthews was shot and killed on June 2, 2022, in the Mechanicsville neighborhood of Atlanta. A student at Maynard Jackson High School with graduation approaching, Drevion lived on Humphries Street SW, where the shooting took place. The medical examiner recorded 11 gunshot wounds as the cause of death.

Family members initially believed Drevion may have been lured from his apartment in a set-up; they described him as not involved in gang activity and as a loving, respectful teen focused on his future. Surveillance footage from the day showed Drevion asking a group of people to move away from the entrance to his building, and later footage captured a confrontation in which a man began to antagonize and then shot Drevion multiple times.

Investigators recovered multiple shell casings that they determined came from a single firearm and identified 29-year-old Roddrick Teasley as the suspect. Teasley was located in the apartment complex and arrested. Does anyone have information about Drevion, his routines, or what happened that evening?
