Anthony Hopgood, a 30-year-old Black man, was killed on January 24, 2022, in East Point, just outside Atlanta, when gunfire broke out near the Piggly Wiggly and the Citgo along the 3000 block of Washington Road. Police arrived just before 5 p.m. and found him lying in the road with multiple gunshot wounds; paramedics examined him there and he was pronounced dead. The shooting happened in broad daylight on one of the city’s busiest commercial stretches and initial reports said the shooter had fled before officers arrived.

East Point police later said they developed suspects soon after the shooting. On February 23, 2022, authorities announced two arrests: Chad Okelley, 28, was charged with murder in Hopgood’s killing, and Keenan Higgins, 31, was arrested on firearm-possession charges as a convicted felon.

If anyone knew Anthony, saw the shooting, or has information about that January 24 incident, please share what is known with investigators.
