A pedestrian accident claimed the life of a man Tuesday morning, May 7, 2019. According to AJC.com, “[a] man walking in a right lane was struck just before 6 a.m. by a Nissan Versa as the car was merging onto the interstate from the Ga. 61 entrance ramp…[t]he impact catapulted the pedestrian into the center lane.”  According to the report, a Georgia State Patrol spokesperson said “it is very likely that the pedestrian was struck by a number of unknown vehicles traveling westbound as well…[h]owever, no other vehicles stopped or returned to the scene.”

The interstate was closed while troopers investigated, no word on any charges being filed according to the media report.

Anahitdeep Singh Sandhu Victim in Kings Villas Apartments Shooting

Kings Villas Apartments Shooting Leaves 1 man Dead. (13WMAZ.com)

Did negligent security contribute to the shooting death at a Perry apartment complex and are justice and compensation available to the victim’s family?

LOCAL NEWS

Update:  13WMAZ.com is identifying the victim in Sunday’s shooting as “20-year-old Private Anahitdeep Singh Sandhu, of Beaufort, South Carolina.”

Gunfire erupted at a Perry, Georgia apartment complex Sunday evening, April 28, 2019, leaving one man dead.  According to 13WMAZ. com, “the shooting happened at Kings Villas Apartments off Kings Chapel Road around 6:30 p.m. Sunday.”  The news story reports “the man was shot multiple times, and passed away.”  The name of the victim was not released and the investigation into a motive continues.

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Apartment 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 at the apartment complex and whether this shooting may have been prevented.

  • What security measures were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on the property?
  • How was the suspect able to gain access to the property?

Generally, property owners 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 failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the victim’s family may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss. 

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, 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. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.

A pedestrian accident claimed the life of a young man Friday morning, April 26, 2019. According to WSBtv.com, “[t]he fatal crash happened Friday morning around 9 when Vincent left his home on Campbellton Road in southwest Atlanta and walked to a nearby store with his cousin.”  Kimonte Vincent’s cousin was next to Kimonte when the accident happened and in an interview with WSBtv.com, the cousin said “I was shocked. My first thing was to stop all cars that was coming making sure no one ran over him. The only person who didn’t pull over to the side was the driver that initially did the hitting, he kept going,”  A witness who spoke with WSBtv.com said “he chased the driver down Campbellton Road about a mile, he pulled up to him, let him know he saw the crash and took down his license plate…[h]e said that’s when the driver returned to the scene.”

Police have not made any charges as of yet according to the media report.
