Jatonne Sterling was a 20-year-old Clark Atlanta University sophomore and baseball player from Chicago who was fatally shot on February 28, 2023. The shooting happened in the parking lot of a Catholic campus ministry near a residence hall on campus. Sterling, a computer science major, entered a vehicle occupied by 25-year-old Keontay Holliman-Peoples and another unidentified man; a dispute inside the car escalated into an exchange of gunfire. Both Sterling and Holliman-Peoples were shot. Police arrived about 1:42 p.m.; Sterling was found unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene, while Holliman-Peoples was taken to a hospital for treatment.

Atlanta police quickly identified Holliman-Peoples as the suspect. He was not a student at Clark Atlanta University and was initially charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, and other offenses. Investigators used campus surveillance footage and sought to identify the third man who was in the car. If anyone knew Sterling, Holliman-Peoples, or the unidentified passenger and can help clarify what happened that afternoon, please share what is known.
