Dorian Lydell Hankins, 31, was shot and killed in his living room on Chestnut Oak Drive in Palmetto, Georgia, on the night of March 9, 2020. Officers found Hankins on the living room floor after a barrage of bullets struck the front of the house between about 10:30 and 11 p.m. Another person who was inside the residence at the time was not injured.

Investigators concluded the shooting did not appear random and was not a home invasion; authorities believe shots were fired from the front yard and that Hankins’s home was deliberately targeted. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation was asked to assist, but as of March 2024 no arrests had been made and no suspects publicly identified. A reward of up to $2,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest and indictment.
