Antonio McBride, 20, was killed in the early morning hours of November 3, 2015, while walking home from a music studio along Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard in Atlanta. Two men, Gerrod Shequille Crawford and Kahreek Flowers, were in the area intending to commit a robbery. After abandoning a plan to rob an armed drug dealer, they targeted McBride. Witnesses heard McBride plead that he had nothing; he was then beaten and kicked until he fell, and Flowers fired multiple times, striking McBride in the back, buttock, and face. McBride was found in some bushes around 4:30 a.m. and pronounced dead at the scene.

Initial investigation sought public help identifying a white Lincoln Town Car and multiple suspects. A tip eventually led to Kahreek Flowers, who pleaded guilty in December 2016. Gerrod Shequille Crawford was tried in March 2018; witnesses placed both men chasing McBride before the shooting. A jury convicted Crawford of felony murder and related charges and sentenced him to life in prison; that conviction was affirmed by the Supreme Court of Georgia in September 2021.

Does anyone have information about McBride’s last route along Joseph E. Lowery Boulevard or recall seeing a white Lincoln Town Car in that area on November 3, 2015?
