On an October afternoon in 2010, 57-year-old Everett Collins was walking to a neighbor’s house in the Kirkwood neighborhood of Atlanta when an armed man approached him near Ridgedale Road NE and Norwood Avenue. Collins was reportedly on his cellphone about 1:30 p.m. when witnesses heard an argument and then a single gunshot. The assailant fled, leaving Collins fatally wounded in the street.

Investigators treated the argument as the likely catalyst but were unable to identify a suspect or a clear motive. Neighbors noted the shooting added to local unease after a non-fatal shooting on the same street the year before. No arrests had been announced at the time of the initial reports.

If anyone remembers seeing an altercation near Ridgedale and Norwood around that time or has information about who approached Collins, please come forward.
