Atlanta police are still investigating after a man was found dead Monday afternoon at an apartment complex on Campbellton Road.

A man found dead at a southwest Atlanta apartment complex Monday afternoon was shot multiple times, police said.

The victim, later identified as 29-year-old Roosevelt Wood, was pronounced dead by Atlanta fire crews at the Cascade Glen complex on Campbellton Road. Atlanta police found the man with multiple gunshot wounds when they responded shortly after 1:30 p.m.

The circumstances surrounding the shooting are still under investigation, a police spokesman said Tuesday.

The same apartment complex has been the site of multiple shootings in recent years. In December, Detroit native Azal Lockett, 28, died after he was shot and crashed his vehicle at the complex. Another man, 21-year-old Shakur Tigner of Atlanta, was shot in the chest and killed there in 2019.
