On the afternoon of July 17, 2021, 24-year-old Danzel Deanglo Mullins Sr. was found dead inside his car on Cunningham Place in southwest Atlanta after a vehicle fire was extinguished. An autopsy determined Mullins had been shot to death. Surveillance footage showed a blue Nissan SUV pull up alongside Mullins’ vehicle just before gunfire is heard; Mullins’ car then moved erratically and crashed while the blue SUV fled the scene.

Mullins was described by his parents as a loving father and cherished family member. The family and Atlanta Police offered a reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment, and the family later expressed fears the case was growing cold. Law enforcement says the investigation remains active, but as of early 2026 no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified.

Did anyone in the area see the blue Nissan SUV that day or notice anything unusual on Cunningham Place that afternoon?
