Terrick Matthews was 24 and a father of two when he was shot to death in the late hours of a September night in 2018. He was resting in the passenger seat of a Nissan Maxima parked at the Parkside at Camp Creek Apartments in East Point, Georgia, when three armed individuals tried to break into the vehicle. Matthews and the driver complied with the assailants’ demands to exit the car, but a single gunshot struck Matthews in the neck and killed him at the scene. The attackers fled in the stolen Maxima.

A few hours later the Maxima was found burning at a different apartment complex on Old Hapeville Road in southwest Atlanta. Surveillance from an Exxon station on Cleveland Avenue showed one suspect buying gasoline and filling a soda bottle that was later used to set the car ablaze. Police identified three suspects: Ronald Dewan White, his 15-year-old brother, and Luther Bernard Ausbrooks. The teenager’s mother turned him in after recognizing him from the gas station footage; Ausbrooks was arrested in October on charges including murder, carjacking, and armed robbery. White was captured in February 2019 in Cobb County on unrelated charges and was to be transferred to Fulton County to face murder and other charges in Matthews’ death.

Does anyone have information about Terrick Matthews, the late-night events at Parkside at Camp Creek, or the movements of the stolen Maxima before it was torched?
