On the evening of November 29, 2014, 19-year-old Joshua N. Barkley was visiting his father on Richmond Avenue in southeast Atlanta when two or three men knocked at the door and opened fire. Joshua, an African American male, was killed along with two other men, Ricky Whitlock, 51, and Marcus Gay, 43; two other people were wounded and survived the attack.

The Atlanta Police Department investigated and in 2015 released composite sketches of two men believed to be responsible, but the case later grew cold and no arrests were announced. Joshua’s mother, Lisa Barkley, and his sister, Kenyatta, have led efforts to keep the case in the public eye, holding vigils and appearing in media. They also helped increase the Crime Stoppers reward from $2,000 to $15,000.

The murder remains unsolved. If anyone has information about the November 29, 2014 shooting on Richmond Avenue or the men seen at the door that night, please come forward.
