On the evening of March 19, 2016, 50-year-old William Blackwell of Goodlettsville, Tennessee, was shot and killed at an Exxon station near West End Mall in Atlanta. Blackwell entered the driver’s seat of that running vehicle; when Scott returned and found him there he allegedly produced a gun and fired multiple times, with witnesses reporting about five shots. An unidentified woman was in the passenger seat during the incident.

Scott went back into the station, asked employees to call 911, waited for police and surrendered; he was arrested and charged with murder. The case prompted debate about whether the shooting could be justified under Georgia’s self-defense and property-protection rules, with commentators noting those laws have specific thresholds for use of deadly force.

Did anyone see the events at the Exxon that night or know more about William Blackwell’s movements before the shooting?
