Two more suspects in the shooting death of a DeKalb County man who was reported missing more than week ago are in police custody, authorities said.
Marcus Estes, 18, turned himself in to police Monday morning in connection with the shooting death of Derrick Jamal Linkhorn, 19, DeKalb County police spokeswoman Mekka Parish told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
He had been wanted on murder charges in Linkhorn's killing.
Malcolm Jamall Wilson, 19, was apprehended over the weekend by the DeKalb Sheriff's Office's fugitive squad and charged with murder in connection with Linkhorn's death, according to jail records.
Authorities already had Antarious Johnson, 17, in custody and charged with murder, police said.
"According to our detectives, the motive for this shooting was a dispute," Parish said. "Detectives were led to the body through evidence in the case."
Linkhorn was reported missing on March 8, and his body was found Thursday night in the storage area of the Southern Pines Apartments on Mountain View Drive.
He had been shot.
It's unclear how long his body had been in the apartment complex.
Police continue to investigate.
