On November 3, 2018, 37-year-old Sutton Tennyson was shot and killed at his home in Atlanta, Georgia. Officers responding to reports of gunfire found Tennyson deceased inside his open garage with multiple gunshot wounds. He was an African-American man, and the shooting occurred after a conversation with another man in the garage escalated into a heated argument.

Police quickly identified a suspect, Michael Williams, and a week after the shooting Williams, then 44, turned himself in to Atlanta Police Headquarters with his attorney. Authorities charged Williams with murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. A detective at a court hearing reported a witness statement that Williams shot Tennyson as he was walking away and that the dispute concerned money.

An autopsy showed Tennyson was shot 13 times by a .45-caliber firearm, with wounds to his chest, arms, legs, and stomach and three bullets causing severe damage to his heart. If anyone knew Sutton, was at the scene, or has information about the argument that night, please come forward.
