Dayvon Daquan Bennett, 26, known professionally as King Von, was killed in an early-morning shootout outside the Monaco Hookah Lounge in Atlanta on November 6, 2020. An argument between two groups of men escalated to an exchange of gunfire at about 3:20 a.m.; Bennett sustained fatal gunshot wounds during that initial shootout and was taken to a local hospital in a private vehicle, where he later died. The official cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds. The incident also killed 34-year-old Mark Blakley and wounded several others.

Two off-duty Atlanta police officers working security at the lounge, and a nearby on-duty officer, confronted people involved and exchanged gunfire; none of the officers were injured. The day after the shooting Atlanta police arrested 22-year-old Timothy Leeks, also known as Lul Timm, at Grady Hospital while he was being treated for a gunshot wound and charged him with the felony murder of Bennett. Two other men, Johnny Harris and Kevin Jones, were also taken into custody. Leeks was released on bond in March 2021, and the felony murder charge against him was dropped in August 2023.

Are there details about the timeline outside the lounge or witnesses who have not yet come forward?
