Could This Tragic Loss of Life Have Been Prevented?
Local News
Gunfire erupted outside the Waterford Manor apartment complex in Decatur Friday, July 7, 2017, reportedly claiming the life of 37-year-old Adrian Anderson.
According to 11 Alive News, the shooting occurred “around 3:30 Friday morning at the Waterford Manor Apartments located at 4105 Covington Highway.” The AJC reports, Mr. Anderson was “standing outside his car” when an armed assailant “tried to rob him.” The suspect opened fire during the struggle, fatally striking Mr. Anderson before fleeing the scene.
The complex was apparently the subject of a prior shooting investigation in May 2016. WTVM reports, a stray bullet ripped through the bedroom wall of two young children in that terrifying incident.

Our Legal Take
Apartment complex residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided to those at the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.
- Were any additional security measures, such as gated-entry, bright lighting, surveillance cameras, and security patrols, implemented by the apartment complex owner following media reports of prior gun violence on property?
By law, property owners in Georgia are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the apartment complex owner or management failed to provide adequate security, the family of Adrian Anderson may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his wronful death.
Based upon its long, extensive, and successful experience in handling negligent security cases against property owners in the State of Georgia, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed.
