On December 15, 2014, 18-year-old Gideon Phazion Mays was at a friend’s house on Chappell Street in Griffin, Georgia, when a large-caliber firearm discharged and struck him in the neck. Mays was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting was accidental. Officers arrested 23-year-old Terrize Stroud after determining the weapon discharged while Mays and Stroud were handling it. Stroud was charged with involuntary manslaughter and reckless conduct and was held in the Spalding County Jail; authorities reported he contacted police and cooperated, and that the scene evidence matched his account.

Few details about the circumstances inside the house have been released. Does anyone have information about the events on Chappell Street that night or knew Gideon or Terrize?
