On a spring afternoon in Atlanta, the life of 16-year-old Micah Mike Durdan was tragically cut short. The male teenager, also identified in his obituary as Micah Jaswon Durdan Jr., was fatally shot on Monday, April 3, 2017. The incident occurred around 4:30 p.m. inside the Biscayne Apartments, located on the 5400 block of Old National Highway in what was then unincorporated College Park and would later become part of the city of South Fulton.
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting,
Fulton County police initiated an investigation into the homicide. At the time, authorities reported that a separate, related shooting had taken place on the 2300 block of Hackamore Drive, a street near the apartment complex. Law enforcement officials appealed to the public for any information that could lead to an understanding of the events that transpired and the identification of those responsible for Micah Durdan's death.
Despite the initial investigation and public calls for assistance, information regarding any suspects or arrests in the murder of Micah Durdan has not been made publicly available in the years since his death. Online sources and news reports have not provided any updates on the case, and there have been no announcements of any individuals being charged or taken into custody for the crime. The case, it appears, remains an unsolved tragedy, leaving a family and community to mourn the loss of a young life.
