Airman shot by deputy
Andre Fortson, a 16-year-old boy and brother of U.S. Air Force senior airman Roger Fortson, was shot and killed in a shooting incident on July 30 in DeKalb County, Georgia. This tragedy follows the death of his older brother, who was shot by a Florida sheriff's deputy in May, igniting a painful cycle of loss for their mother, Chantemekki Fortson. The shooting occurred in a breezeway at the Summit Hill Apartments, where Andre was reportedly caught in crossfire between two groups. A 20-year-old suspect, Quintavious Zellner, has been arrested and charged with aggravated assault, while police continue to investigate the incident. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump, representing the family, emphasized the devastation the Fortson family is experiencing after losing two young members in such a short span. The community is mourning alongside the family, with calls for privacy during this challenging time.
