Atlanta teen Bobby Tillman beaten to death for being at the wrong place, wrong time
Atlanta teenager, Bobby Tillman, was murdered at a house part early Sunday for being at the wrong place, at the wrong time.
Atlanta teen Bobby Tillman was murdered at a house party early Sunday morning for being at the wrong place, at the wrong time, authorities say.
Bobby Tillman beaten to death
Four people appeared in court Monday for the fatal beating of the 18-year-old, who was attacked at a house party after he walked by a group who decided to beat on the next person who walked past them.
A party that was only supposed to have 10 invitees of close friends, escalated to having more than expected.
Parents of the children throwing the party asked party goers to leave, and that’s when a fight broke out between two females and two males, where one of the females hit the male. The man said he wouldn’t retaliate against a girl, but would beat the next man who walked past him. The unlucky innocent young man was Bobby Tillman.
Douglas County Maj. Tommy Wheeler, said Tillman was beaten by multiple attackers. Deputies arriving at the scene tried to resuscitate the teenager, but he succumbed to his injuries.
Suspects
The four suspects who appeared Monday at an initial hearing in the killing of Tillman were identified as Quantez Devonta Mallory, Horace Damon Coleman, Emanuel Benjamin Boykins and Tracen Lamar Franklin.
