The victim of a shooting Friday in northwest Atlanta has been identified as Damian Stinchcomb of Union City.

Stinchcomb, 25, was shot and killed at the Etheridge Court Apartments in the 2500 block of Center Street. An autopsy was being performed Saturday by the Fulton County medical examiner's office.

In another case, investigators for the medical examiner are seeking next-of-kin for a man in his 20s who was shot to death Thursday evening on Jones Avenue, about four minutes from the scene of the shooting that killed Stinchcomb.
