A Cobb County man was charged with murder after firing six shots at his home, killing another man Wednesday afternoon, according to police.
Conner Harrison Beck, 26, is accused of killing Ethan Wackermann at a Kennesaw-area apartment complex shortly after 4 p.m., Beck’s arrest warrant states.
“Said accused was armed with a pistol and shot the victim six times, which caused the victim to suffer pain, visible injuries, and internal injuries which ultimately led to his death,” the warrant states.
Beck was arrested late Wednesday and charged with murder, aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and trafficking marijuana, jail records show. According to investigators, Beck had nearly 17 pounds of marijuana in a suitcase at his home.
On Friday, Beck was being held without bond at the Cobb jail.
Wackermann had a young daughter and was engaged to be married, according to a GoFundMe page created to assist the family.
“Ethan was a very good person with a VERY trusting heart and always made sure when he ate, everyone ate,” Wackermann’s fiancée posted. “My heart is broken, my fiancé and baby’s father is gone with no type of closure, no answers yet, and no story other than him being shot.”
