Deniro Arness Smith, 22, was shot and killed in the parking lot of the Grove Apartments on Brampton Avenue in Statesboro, Georgia, on the night of March 9, 2017. Police were called for shots fired just before 11 p.m.; Smith was found with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators concluded the shooting resulted from a drug transaction that went wrong. The probe led to three arrests: Jaden Thinh Le, 20, of Lawrenceville, and Jaime Francisco Perez, 22, of Statesboro, were charged with felony murder; Michael Jay Williams, 24, of Rincon, was charged with obstructing an officer and providing false information. All three were held at the Bulloch County Jail without bond as the investigation continued, with investigators indicating additional charges were possible.
