Dogwood Lakes housing development resident Frankie Worth describes how he witnessed the shooting of his neighbor during a mass shooting in Hampton, Ga., Saturday, July 15, 2023. HAMPTON, Ga. — — Officers shot and killed a man wanted in four weekend killings near Atlanta during an exchange of gunfire, and a sheriff's deputy and a police officer were injured trying to take the suspect into custody, authorities said.
Authorities had said they were seeking Longmore on four counts of murder in connection with the deaths of four people Saturday morning in the Dogwood Lakes subdivision of Hampton. Police haven't disclosed a motive for those shootings. On Sunday, neighbor Frankie Worth described the danger up close as he saw part of what unfolded in the subdivision a day earlier. He told The Associated Press he heard a gunshot Saturday morning as he was reaching for his living room window to open the blinds and figure out how much yard work he had to do.
Worth said the man appeared to have fired at a small white car being driven by another neighbor, “an older white gentleman,” who lives across from Worth. He said the shooting happened on the edge of a cul-de-sac where they all live. Worth said he heard no more gunshots after that. Police said that after the shooting, Longmore fled in a black GMC Acadia SUV and was being sought.
