Two charged in Dunwoody death

Police Tuesday announced the arrests last week of two Gwinnett County men in the mid-November slaying of a man found dead inside of a Dunwoody apartment.

Dunwoody police spokesman Trey Nelson said Ja’ron Acklin, 24, was found dead Nov. 16 at The Barclay Apartments on Barclay Drive.

Police arrested Kashawn Mitchell, 22, of Snellville on Dec. 21, and two days later arrested Julius Bynum-Horn, 21, of Lilburn, and charged both men with murder, according to Nelson.

Investigators have not said how Acklin died or revealed a motive for the slaying.
