Dimitri Manick, 39, a Black man known to some as D, was found dead on the sidewalk at 96 Broad Street SW in Atlanta on the morning of January 2, 2017, after suffering a gunshot wound to the head. A passerby discovered him around 6:30 a.m., and police described his killing as the city’s first homicide of 2017. Reports said there were no obvious signs of a struggle, creating the impression the attack was sudden and left few physical clues at the scene.

Friends and neighbors remembered Manick as a good dude and noted he had been living on the street for several years, which added to the case’s poignancy. Investigators checked for cameras, tried to trace his movements in the hours before the shooting, and later conducted a tactical homicide canvass in the neighborhood, handing out flyers and speaking with residents.

If anyone knew Dimitri, saw activity near 96 Broad Street SW that morning, or has information that could help, please come forward.
