Man sought in East Point ‘gang-related' shooting
Police are seeking a 19-year-old man who they say was involved in a gang-related shooting last week in an apartment on Penny Lane in East Point.
Adarius Bullard, of East Point, is considered armed and dangerous, police said. Police said that Bullard had told friends that he would not turn himself in, according to police.
Two other suspects have been arrested in the Thursday incident in which a man was shot in the apartment and left there. A maintenance worker found the victim in the apartment.
The suspects appear to be members of a gang called the GYOP Boys or “Get Your Own Paper” gang, and the shooting had to do with drugs and gang activity, police said.
Police are asking anyone with information on Bullard to contact East Point Police at 404-761-2177 or in an emergency dial 911.
