On April 2, 2016, 22-year-old Wesley Alectus Jr. of South Carolina was visiting a friend at Shadowood West Apartments on West Highland Drive in Macon, Georgia. Shortly before 5:40 a.m., while inside an apartment with two other people, a handgun discharged while he was handling it. A single shot struck him in the head.

Emergency responders transported Alectus to Navicent Health Hospital in critical condition, and he later died of his injuries. The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office investigated the shooting and reported that the evidence indicated the gun discharged unintentionally; there have been no arrests or suspects reported in connection with the incident.

Are there any witnesses or residents who were at Shadowood West Apartments that morning who can shed more light on what happened?
