On December 18, 2024, 37-year-old Malcombe Jovan Hill and 35-year-old Tijuan L. Heard were fatally shot during a domestic dispute at a home in the Lakes at Cedar Grove community in Fairburn, Georgia. The dispute had begun the previous day between Hill and a man who had been living with him since mid-October, identified as Zj'Xari Taylor, over use of a vehicle; Hill asked Taylor to move out. Multiple calls were placed to police the day before as Taylor tried to retrieve belongings, and officers left after those involved were uncooperative.

Shortly after 2 a.m. on December 18, Taylor returned with a female family member to collect items. Taylor later told investigators he shot Hill after Hill allegedly punched the family member and reached for an object in his waistband, and that he also shot Heard as Heard advanced toward him unarmed. Neighbors walking their dogs discovered Hill in the garage and Heard in a hallway leading to the garage; both were pronounced dead at the scene. Taylor was arrested and charged with two counts of murder, two counts of aggravated assault, and two counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. All parties were known to one another.

Are there readers who knew Hill or Heard or who have information about the events that night?
