Carlos Davis II, 15, was fatally shot the evening of March 4, 2018, while visiting friends at a northwest Atlanta home. Friends were gathered in a bedroom at a Mercury Drive residence shortly before 7 p.m. when another teen began handling a pistol and it discharged, striking Davis. He was privately transported to Grady Memorial Hospital and later died there.

The next morning 17-year-old Jefferey Reeves surrendered to Atlanta police with his mother and admitted the shooting was accidental; he turned the weapon over and was charged with involuntary manslaughter and booked into the Fulton County Jail. Carlos was a Mays High School football player remembered by family and teammates as a leader and an encourager; his mother said they had spoken by FaceTime shortly before the shooting, and he’d told her he was on his way home.

Does anyone who knew Carlos or was in that neighborhood that evening have information that could help clarify what happened?
