Officials released photos of the bald, African American male they believe to be the suspect. Investigators said the man had a gray beard and a noticeable limp. He was wearing a black sweater and gray pants when the video and photos were taken.

On Jan. 27 at around 8:20 a.m., police said they found a male victim had been shot to death.

Anyone with information on the suspect or the incident is asked to submit a tip anonymously to the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tip line at 404-577-8477.

The family of the victim has set up a GoFundMe account to help pay for funeral expenses and to take care of his three children, one who was born just a week before he was gunned down.
