A planned robbery over drugs ended in a three-way shootout at the Vineyard Walk Apartments near Flat Shoals Road and Interstate 20. On March 14, 2019, 23-year-old Andrew Barkley of the Atlanta area went to an apartment after seeing a social media post that showed drugs. Barkley and an acquaintance, Angelo Lenon, were armed with a pistol and a shotgun and entered the unit where 23-year-old Daishone Flagg and 26-year-old Jeremie Tyson were present.

Inside the apartment, Flagg was shot in the forehead and Tyson was shot in the back with a shotgun. Barkley tried to retrieve Tyson’s gun believing Tyson was dead, but Tyson returned fire and struck Barkley. Barkley and Lenon fled; Barkley collapsed in the complex’s main road and was found unresponsive. Barkley, Flagg and Tyson were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital and pronounced dead.

Lenon later contacted Barkley’s girlfriend and admitted the plan had went left; Barkley’s family then called police. Lenon was arrested four days after the incident in Newnan and was later found guilty on multiple counts related to Flagg and Tyson’s deaths, receiving three life sentences.

If anyone knew Barkley, Flagg or Tyson, or has information about what happened that night, please share tips with investigators.
