Dedrell J. Knox, 41, was found dead in front of an apartment complex on DeKalb Avenue in Atlanta in the early morning of August 26, 2018. Responding officers arrived after a report of a person shot and discovered Knox about 3:45 a.m.; he had sustained multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators reported Knox had a significant amount of cash on him when he was found, and a later search of his apartment uncovered narcotics, prompting investigators to consider a possible drug-related motive. The shooting is believed to have started inside an apartment before ending on the complex’s front lawn.

The Atlanta Police Department released a 12-second video showing four people walking near the complex around the time of the shooting and identified them as persons of interest, but did not provide descriptions. A reward of up to $2,000 was offered for information leading to an arrest and indictment. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

If anyone has information about Knox, his movements that night, or the four people seen on the video, please come forward to assist the investigation.
