In the early morning hours of February 17, 2016, the life of 33-year-old Larry Robinson was cut short by violence in a residential neighborhood in southwest Atlanta. Around 3:15 a.m., the sound of gunfire shattered the quiet of Orlando Street. When police arrived, they discovered Robinson's body; he had been fatally shot.
The killing of Larry Robinson added to a concerning increase in violent crime that Atlanta was experiencing at the time.
Investigators with the Atlanta Police Department began looking into the circumstances surrounding the shooting, but the case proved to be challenging from the outset. Despite their efforts in the initial stages of the investigation and in the years that have followed, no arrests have been made in connection with his death.
The case of Larry Robinson's murder remains an open and unsolved homicide. The identity of the person or persons responsible for his death is still unknown, and a motive for the shooting has not been publicly released by law enforcement. Authorities have, over time, appealed to the public for any information that might lead to a breakthrough in the investigation, as Robinson's family and community continue to await justice.
