Jibri Bryan, Mercer Basketball Player, Shot Dead in Macon, Georgia Gas Station

Who:Mercer's Shooting Guard Jibri Bryan

Where:Macon, Georgia

When:Wednesday,3 February @4pm

What:The 23 year old shooting guard from Mercer University was found dead in a white Monte Carlo around 4pm by the Bibb County Sheriffs. Another victim was found injured but officers believe that the second victim was in another car, a white Nissan Sentra and drove up to Bryan right before the shooting happened that evening in  the Flash Foods gas station in Macon. Bryan was shot in the head instantly killing him, the other victim injured is unknown where he got shot. This all took place in a "bustling corner" of a very busy crossroad between campus and downtown. Although Bryan was sitting in the drivers seat of the vehicle it is unknown whether he was driving or not.

Why I chose it:I chose this as my current event because it's  crazy how a normal college basketball player was shot dead. I read a lot of the comments written by his teams and close friends or people that knew him, and they all said he was a very cheerful person that always made people smile and was very respectful. So i found it crazy how a good person was wanted dead.
