Atlanta police arrested a 25-year-old man on Thursday after they say he shot and killed Clark Atlanta University baseball player Jatonne Sterling.
Keontay Holliman-Peoples was arrested on Thursday after police said he shot and killed Sterling in the parking lot of a Catholic center near Clark Atlanta University campus on Tuesday,. He was charged with felony murder, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm.
Police said that Sterling and Holliman-Peoples knew each other, and that they had communicated both before and the day of the shooting. Sterling allegedly got into a vehicle parked behind the Catholic center on Thursday before a dispute broke out, which led to gunfire. It’s unclear what sparked the altercation.
Police are looking for a third suspect, who they said was also in the car at the time of the shooting. Holliman-Peoples is recovering in a local hospital after he sustained injuries in the incident, too. Our hearts and prayers go out to the family, friends and teammates of our student Jatonne Sterling. Please keep his family and the entire CAU community in your prayers.
