In the late hours of an April evening in 2014, a burst of gunfire shattered the relative quiet of a Union City, Georgia, convenience store parking lot, leaving a man dead and a woman wounded. The deceased was identified as Evan Campbell, a 39-year-old man from College Park. The shooting occurred shortly before 10:30 p.m. in the parking lot of the Chevron Food Mart located in the 5800 block of Buffington Road.
When Union City police officers arrived at the scene, they discovered Evan Campbell's body in the parking lot. Another victim, a female who had sustained multiple gunshot wounds, was also found. She was transported to a local hospital for medical attention. Her condition following the incident was not made publicly available.
In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, law enforcement officials began their investigation into the double shooting. The Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed Evan Campbell as the deceased victim. However, details surrounding the circumstances of the shooting were scarce. Authorities did not release the name of the injured woman, nor did they publicly speculate on a motive for the attack. Information regarding any potential suspects or persons of interest was not disclosed in the initial reports, and no arrests have been publicly announced in connection with the case.
