Luis Salgado was 18 when he was found with multiple gunshot wounds in a parking lot at 555 Whitehall Street SW in Atlanta on August 12, 2023. He had been at a private event near the Morehouse and Spelman campuses; a call to police came in about 3:30 a.m. Emergency responders took him to Grady Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

The Atlanta Police Department opened a homicide investigation and released surveillance images of two young men believed to be involved. One was described as having a small afro, a muscular build, wearing a dark T-shirt and shorts with a thick gold chain. The other was described as slimmer, wearing a white graphic sweater, light-colored pants, and a black cap. No arrests have been announced.

Salgado’s sister began a GoFundMe to help cover funeral expenses. The circumstances that led to the shooting remain unclear. If anyone has information about the incident or the identities of the two men in the released images, please contact the Atlanta Police Department.
