Nineteen-year-old Brandson Long of Shannon, Georgia, died of a gunshot wound on the evening of June 23, 2024. He was in the company of 22-year-old Tyler Michael Zacher and 20-year-old Jayden Patrick Fiorito when a Glock was discharged; Long was struck in the pelvic area and later died at Atrium Medical Center after being taken there from a nearby fire station. Fiorito also suffered a gunshot wound to his hand.

Investigators found that the Glock had been stolen from a vehicle in the Swan Lake Community earlier by Zacher and Fiorito, and that the initial story the men gave about being on a camping trip did not match evidence. A woman identified as 48-year-old Stephanie Eugenia Shuler is accused of throwing the firearm into woods near a church on Shannon Circle Connector; police recovered the weapon the next day.

Zacher and Fiorito were arrested first on false statement and obstruction charges and later charged with felony murder, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, entering an automobile, and theft by taking articles from a vehicle. Shuler was charged with tampering with evidence and obstruction for allegedly disposing of the gun and misleading investigators. If anyone knew Brandson or has information about the events that night, please come forward.
