Seventeen-year-old Quintavious Barber Jr. was shot and killed during a firearm transaction on the evening of January 25, 2017, in the Sable Chase Apartments parking lot in McDonough, Georgia. Barber, who was known to some as Jr., had arranged to trade a rifle for two pistols and went to the meeting with another man, Keundre Chappell. When 21-year-old Deshaun Middlebrooks opened fire, both Barber and Chappell fled; Barber ran to a nearby apartment but collapsed and later died at a hospital. Chappell survived with a gunshot wound to his hand.

Investigators identified Middlebrooks as the shooter and 20-year-old Tory Jaleel Jones as the driver of the getaway vehicle. Both men were arrested and later convicted by a Henry County jury of malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Middlebrooks received life without parole plus 25 years; Jones received life with the possibility of parole plus five years.
