BROOKHAVEN, Ga. — Police are continuing the search for the people responsible for a shooting that led to the death of Dr. Matthew Willson.
Willson was visiting his girlfriend in Brookhaven from England when gunshots rang out and stray bullet struck him in the head as he slept, police say.
He was just three days into a three-month trip to the metro Atlanta area.
Willson’s sister told Channel 2′s Matt Johnson they’re worried the shooters may not even know the consequences of their actions.
“They were just shooting a gun for fun. And they don’t even know that they’ve taken such a beautiful person from us,” his sister said.
