In Conyers, three teenagers—Isaiah Reid, Brandon Gresham, and Jaime Hernandez—met a tragic end during an attempted robbery. Rockdale County Sheriff Eric Levett disclosed that the masked teens had targeted a homeowner and his family. He remarked, “When deputies arrived, they did find masks on the [faces of the deceased] young men.” The incident unfolded at 4 a.m. on White Oak Court. A suspect, wielding a handgun, fired at residents, prompting one of the intended victims to return fire.
Autopsies, handled by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, are underway, with results expected in weeks. Notably, Reid and Hernandez were revealed to be brothers. The homeowner, currently withholding comments, is awaiting the outcome of an ongoing investigation. The sheriff emphasized the need to determine whether the homeowner will face charges or if the case will be deemed an act of self-defense. The tragic event sheds light on the complexities surrounding the use of force in protecting one’s home.
