Late on August 10, 2021, 27-year-old Zerrick Monson was found fatally shot in the head on a sidewalk along Old Hapeville Road in southwest Atlanta. Police discovered his body in the roadway just after midnight and treated the death as a homicide.

Investigators identified 30-year-old Deyanciss Dshae Burnett as a suspect within days. An arrest warrant was issued, and Burnett was taken into custody without incident on August 12, 2021, at a Chevron station on Cleveland Avenue near the scene. He was charged with felony murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and booked into the Fulton County Jail.

Does anyone have information about Monson or what led to that night on Old Hapeville Road?
