In the early hours of June 8, 2023, 45-year-old Dequaye Williams was shot in the driveway of his home in the 4300 block of Rainer Drive in the Estates of Stonewall Manor, a quiet subdivision in South Fulton, Georgia. Neighbors reported hearing at least three gunshots around 1:20 a.m., and witnesses said an unfamiliar car was in Williams’ driveway just before the shooting. After being shot, Williams stumbled to a neighbor’s house and rang the doorbell; he was taken to a local hospital and later pronounced dead.

The South Fulton Police Department opened a homicide investigation that is ongoing. Investigators have canvassed the neighborhood and appealed for information; no suspects have been identified or arrested. Authorities are offering a reward of up to $2,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment. Williams’ family and community are grieving, and his mother, Wilma Edmounds, has vowed she won’t rest until the person responsible is caught.

If anyone saw a car in that driveway or has information about the shooting the police should be contacted.
