Lewis was pronounced dead at the scene and the other victims — a man and a woman — were taken to the hospital and are in stable condition, police said.

Detectives said the three victims left a residence North Fiske Boulevard and Dixon Boulevard and headed to the 900 block of Peachtree Street but were instead dropped off at Prospect Drive and Lynell Lane nearby.

As they lingered in the area, an unidentified black man approached Lewis and the two began arguing, according to police reports. Police said the suspect then drew a gun and fired multiple shots before fleeing the area.
