In the pre-dawn hours of May 29, 2018, 16-year-old Grant Antonio Payton was shot and killed inside a home on Two Lakes Circle in South Fulton, Georgia. Payton and friends had just returned from a late-night run to McDonald’s when gunfire erupted outside the residence shortly before 1 a.m. A bullet penetrated the house and struck Payton; he died in the living room. The attack also killed 19-year-old Tyree Johnson, who was found in a parked car, and wounded a 15-year-old boy who was shot in the face but survived.

The residence and several vehicles were struck by numerous rounds, and police recovered multiple shell casings. Payton had recently started his first job at a Chick-fil-A. Payton’s mother reported that the assailants demanded money before the shooting. In August 2018 police arrested 18-year-old Adrian Chappell and charged him with two counts of murder, aggravated assault with intent to rob, and aggravated battery; Chappell was denied bond and booked into the Fulton County Jail.

If anyone knew Grant, was at Two Lakes Circle that night, or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
