Brandon Burns, a 28-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on the evening of July 15, 2014. The shooting occurred about 11:30 p.m. at a residence on Lookout Avenue in northwest Atlanta. The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office determined Burns died at the scene from a single gunshot wound to the chest.

Investigators with the Atlanta Police Department treated Burns as the intended target, but the motive remained unknown. Detectives examined a range of possible angles, including personal disputes, and reviewed Burns’s background for leads. The probe has been hampered by a lack of substantial evidence and no eyewitnesses came forward.

No arrests have been made and the case remains unsolved despite occasional tips over the years. If anyone knew Brandon, saw activity on Lookout Avenue that night, or has information that could help, please come forward.
