A party at the Dwell @ 750 apartment complex on Franklin Road in Marietta, Georgia, in the early hours of a Wednesday in late May 2014 ended in gunfire after four to five uninvited people arrived and started an altercation. One of the uninvited group produced a handgun and fired into the crowd of roughly 60 attendees. Three people were shot. Nineteen-year-old Christopher Wilson, an African American male, was critically injured and died at WellStar Kennestone Hospital on May 28, 2014. Two other attendees, 19-year-old Chauncey Martin and 18-year-old Malik Phillips, suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds.

Marietta Police say witnesses tied the outbreak of violence to the uninvited group. Investigators identified 20-year-old Blaylan Christopher Phillips of Marietta, who lived in the same apartment complex, as a suspect. He was arrested at his apartment in the early morning hours of a Saturday a few days after the shooting and charged with felony murder and aggravated assault; he was booked into the Cobb County jail held without bond.

Does anyone who attended that party or lived at the complex have information about how the uninvited group gained entry or what sparked the fight?
