Obie Phillips, a 62-year-old disabled man, was shot and killed while walking home on McDaniel Street in Atlanta in October 2014. The shooting happened at 1029 McDaniel St when a car pulled up and occupants fired into the street; relatives described the attack as senseless and unprovoked. Authorities characterized the incident as apparently random, with no clear motive or indication that Phillips had been specifically targeted.

About a month later the same address was the scene of another homicide, a development that heightened concern about violence in the neighborhood though police did not publicly link the two incidents. There have been no reports of arrests or identified suspects in Phillips’s killing, leaving his family without answers.

If anyone knew Obie Phillips, saw activity near 1029 McDaniel St that October evening, or has information that could help, please come forward.
