A 29-year-old man died Sunday after he was stabbed near the Kroger by Ponce City Market on the Atlanta Beltline, police said. The victim was taken to a hospital in critical condition and later died from his injuries, police said. His identity has not been released. Police detained 54-year-old Jonathan Hamby in connection with the stabbing. Investigators do not believe Hamby and the victim knew each other. Hamby has been arrested more than 30 times, including in cases involving possession of a knife and aggravated assault, according to records. Police said he is on active probation following an aggravated assault case in Brookhaven. Court records from DeKalb County show Hamby pleaded guilty in 2024 to carrying a weapon within a school safety zone. He was initially sentenced to 10 years, with two years to be served in custody and the remaining eight years on probation, records show. Records show Hamby did not complete required anger management and a mental health evaluation in 2025. Police said they have not ruled out whether mental health played a role in the stabbing.

Savannah DA is preparing to DROP charges on the 3 men who beat a guy senseless

Fri 14 Aug 2026 10:00:03 +0200

CHATHAM COUNTY, Ga. - Three men arrested in connection with a beating outside a Pooler gas station may have their charges dismissed after Chatham County District Attorney Shalena Jones privately warned Sheriff Richard Coleman that his investigators are making high-profile arrests without sufficient evidence to support prosecution. The arrests of Motreon Williams, Ronnie Scott, and Jimmie Alexander came in February, after a viral video showing the alleged beating caught Coleman’s attention. Coleman documented much of the investigation on social media. The Sheriff’s Office arrested both Williams and Alexander, charging them with party to a crime. Scott was charged with aggravated assault. Once arrests were made, investigators handed the case to the District Attorney’s Office. Internal emails obtained by WTOC Investigates show prosecutors were alarmed by what was missing from the case file. Assistant District Attorney Sara Moorhead contacted lead investigator Trey Conners and outlined ten pieces of missing evidence, including warrants with the actual date of the incident, hospital records, witness identification of the defendants, and — most critically — an interview with the victim. “These should have been done before arrests were made,” Moorhead wrote to Conners. Conners replied that he was “also frustrated with the difficulty in getting lack of cooperation [sic]” and that he was scheduled to meet with the victim, who was in prison, the following week. He said that depending on the outcome of that meeting, dismissal of charges could be an option. Moorhead forwarded the email to District Attorney Jones. Jones then contacted Coleman directly, saying raising dismissal of charges “after defendants have been arrested and the courts are involved is just not good.” Jones said the situation placed her in a difficult position. “If there’s not a good reason to hold somebody in jail, then I need to know that because that is a deprivation of liberty, one that I don’t want to be responsible for, and one that I cannot tolerate,” Jones said.

SMYRNA, Ga. - Smyrna police are searching for a man who pistol-whipped a driver who is in his 50s after a road rage incident escalated into a violent attack in late June. A traffic dispute began in the middle of the day near Cumberland Blvd and Cobb Parkway when one car cut off another.

When the man walked up to the silver car to talk to the passenger, a physical fight broke out. According to Smyrna Police Lt. Meredith Holt, the passenger punched the driver in the face multiple times, knocked him to the ground, and pistol-whipped him with a gun. The female driver of the silver car, identified as 18-year-old Hayle Kirkpatrick, got out during the attack but eventually drove away with the passenger. The victim staggered to his feet before collapsing again and was taken to a hospital for surgery. "The driver of vehicle one was beaten pretty badly, pistol whipped with a firearm and he sustained significant injuries that required him to have surgery," Holt said. Police issued an arrest warrant for Kirkpatrick after she refused to name her passenger. "We have charged her with obstruction because she's not cooperating with us in this case," Holt explained.
