On the evening of Wednesday, June 16, 2021, 18-year-old Marquavious Deshon Wright was found dead from a gunshot wound inside an apartment at the Majestic Gardens Apartments on Rocky Creek Road in Macon, Georgia. A 17-year-old, Deonte Hunt, was also shot in the leg at the scene; his injuries were not considered life-threatening.

Bibb County investigators identified 14-year-old Shamar Smith as involved and located him at the Bowden Homes apartment complex on Monday, June 21, 2021; after an interview he was charged as an adult with felony murder. Reports from the investigation indicated the encounter may have occurred during an attempted robbery that also involved 17-year-old Travis Demontae Gilbert. Authorities alleged neither Gilbert nor Smith fired the fatal shot, yet both faced murder charges tied to the alleged robbery.

The investigation was ongoing and authorities were continuing to piece together exactly what happened that night. Does anyone have information about Marquavious, the Majestic Gardens Apartments, or the people involved that could help clarify the events?
