Apostle Kevin Dewayne Nick, 43, was shot dead in the late evening of March 13, 2021, in Decatur, a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia. Officers found him unconscious inside his black Dodge Durango, which had crashed between two trees on Sherwood Avenue; he had sustained multiple gunshot wounds. Witnesses reported seeing four people in two dark-colored sedans near the scene beforehand, and said someone from one of the vehicles approached the Durango and asked if the driver was a man named Terrance before opening fire, prompting speculation the killing may have involved mistaken identity.

DeKalb County Police opened a homicide investigation, and the day after the shooting they announced the arrest of a 16-year-old male in connection with the murder. No further details about the teenage suspect or a motive were released; the investigation remained active. The congregation and community mourned a leader described as having made a deep impact through his ministry.
