On the late afternoon of Sunday, November 26, 2023, a dispute between two groups who knew one another at a Circle K on Candler Road in Decatur, Georgia, turned violent. Gunfire erupted and 41-year-old Antione Lewis was found inside a vehicle with a critical gunshot wound. He was taken to a local hospital and died of his injuries. Two other people, a man and a woman, suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds and transported themselves to the hospital.

DeKalb County investigators identified suspects after the shooting. One person was taken into custody at the hospital shortly after the incident. On December 20, 2023, the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Unit, assisted by the Georgia State Patrol SWAT, arrested 26-year-old Demarco Boyer at an Atlanta apartment complex; he faces murder, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and is being held without bond. Another individual, Omni Ali Woodward, was also arrested in connection with the fatal shooting.

If anyone witnessed the altercation at the Circle K or has information that could help investigators, please come forward.
