CLAYTON COUNTY NEWS

Gunfire erupted at a Clayton County, Georgia apartment complex early Tuesday morning, June 18, 2019, leaving one man dead.  According to AJC.com, “Clayton County police responded to the shooting at the Gateway at Hartsfield Apartments just before 3:45 a.m….The complex is located in the 800 block of Garden Walk Boulevard in the northern part of the county, about two miles south of Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.”  Per the report, “A man coming home saw the body lying on the ground in the parking lot, called 911 and attempted to perform CPR.” The victim died on the scene.  

An investigation is ongoing.

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Residents and guests of apartment complexes have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The level of security provided at the apartment complex is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented.  The following questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on the property, and were any security measures added after any prior incidents?
  • What security measures were in place to deter crime and protect the victim and others at the time of the shooting?
  • Was the complex aware of any disturbances or suspicious activity prior to the shooting?
  • How was the suspect able to gain access to the complex?

Property owners are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises.  Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the apartment complex owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its residents and visitors, the victim‘s family may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss. 

The Murray Law Firm has extensive and successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, and suggests that an immediate, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed.  The complexities of pursuing a negligent security case are well understood by the legal team at The Murray Law Firm, and it is imperative that the victim‘s family retain a capable law firm who will work without delay to protect their interests.
