In a tragic turn of events on a Saturday morning in Marietta, Georgia, a dispute over a woman culminated in the shooting death of 26-year-old Antrell Hicks-Davis. The fatal encounter unfolded on June 17, 2017, in the parking lot of a Motel 6 on Delk Road, shattering the morning's calm and leaving one man dead and another facing a murder charge.
Responding to a call, Marietta police officers arrived at the motel to find Hicks-Davis suffering from a single gunshot wound to his abdomen.
The call to emergency services was made by the gunman himself, Raheen Demon Stingley. Hicks-Davis was rushed to Kennestone Hospital, but his injury proved to be fatal, and he was pronounced dead.
The investigation into the shooting revealed a story of a personal conflict that escalated to deadly violence. Stingley, who was cooperative with the authorities upon their arrival, informed them that the shooting was the result of an altercation he had with Hicks-Davis concerning a woman with whom Stingley was in a relationship. Despite his cooperation, the severity of the outcome led to his arrest.
Raheen Demon Stingley of Marietta was taken into custody and subsequently charged with felony murder in connection with the death of Antrell Hicks-Davis. He was booked into the Cobb County jail. The incident left a somber mark, highlighting how a personal dispute could so quickly and tragically end in the loss of a young life.
