Taha Ibrahim Tahanur, 33, died on November 17, 2025, after a violent beating outside a residence on Dunleith Court in Stone Mountain, Georgia. Arrest warrants say an argument escalated and a man named Justin Scott Waters allegedly slammed Tahanur to the ground and repeatedly punched him in the face. Witnesses described three people lifting Tahanur into the passenger seat of his own car; instead of getting medical help they drove him to an apartment complex on Summit Creek Drive, where he was later found unresponsive.

The DeKalb County Police Department arrested two men in connection with the case. Justin Scott Waters, 33, of Decatur, was charged with felony murder. Both men were booked into the DeKalb County Jail and held without bond as the investigation continued.

Tahanur’s sister described him as brilliant and driven, noting he graduated high school and began college at 17; she said he never had the chance to marry or have children. Are there witnesses or neighbors who saw the altercation or who can add details about the movements of the vehicle afterward?
