Authorities are trying to identify a suspect in the death of a 40-year-old man shot multiple times in a southwest Atlanta parking lot.
Officers responded to the 3900 block of Campbellton Road the morning of June 6 after getting calls about a shooting. The victim, later identified as Tyson Barnett, was found in the parking lot of an apartment complex with multiple gunshot wounds, Atlanta police spokesman Officer Steve Avery said in an emailed statement.
He was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he died.
Investigators believe Barnett got into an argument with an unidentified man that ended in a shootout, according to police. They have not determined who shot first.
The shooting suspect was seen leaving the scene in a silver vehicle, possibly a Nissan, police said in a bulletin.
Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to contact police. Tipsters can remain anonymous, and be eligible for rewards of up to $2,000, by contacting Crime Stoppers Atlanta at 404-577-8477, texting information to 274637 or visiting the Crime Stoppers website.
