Lavonda Finklea was 35 when she was killed during an apparent carjacking on the evening of July 13, 2018. She had been at a Burger King on Metropolitan Parkway in southwest Atlanta when several men confronted her in the restaurant’s parking lot. An altercation escalated, a gun was fired while she sat in her car, and the single shot proved fatal. Her vehicle rolled into another parked car and came to rest while the attackers fled.

Atlanta police and paramedics pronounced Finklea dead at the scene. Investigators released surveillance footage showing three men running from the area and offered a reward that was later increased; friends also set up a GoFundMe to help the family with funeral expenses and transporting her body to her children in Florida.

Does anyone have information about the three men seen on the surveillance footage or about that night in the Burger King parking lot?
