Kaileb Chance Ellison was 18 when he was shot at a residence on Calm Waters Avenue in Hiram, Georgia, on the evening of February 2, 2019. Deputies found him with a gunshot wound to the head; he was treated by fire and EMS and taken to an Atlanta-area hospital but died of his injuries on February 7, 2019.

Authorities located and arrested a 15-year-old male suspect at Harris Bridge Overlook Apartments in nearby Dallas, Georgia, and recovered the firearm believed used in the shooting. The suspect was identified as Seth William Wyatt and was charged as an adult with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, theft by receiving stolen property, possession of a pistol by a minor, altering a firearm serial number, and violation of the Georgia Street Gang Act. He was held without bond at a metro Atlanta youth detention center.

Was anyone in the Hiram or Dallas area aware of tensions or incidents involving Ellison or the suspect before February 2, 2019?
