In February 2022, a man got into a fight with a 28-year-old security guard at the Encore Hookah Bar and Bistro on Luckie Street. That security guard was Tyshon ‘Ty’ Ross. Once they were outside the bar, police said a man started shooting and one of the bullets hit Ross. He later died at Grady Memorial Hospital.

A man accused of killing a security guard almost three years ago has taken a plea deal.Damon Wilson pled guilty Monday to voluntary manslaughter and will serve 25 years in prison. Judge Belinda Edwards said she reluctantly accepted the recommended sentence calling it a “senseless crime.

After multiple delays and a failed plea deal, the trial of a man accused of gunning down an Atlanta hookah bar security guard after being kicked out of the venue is set to begin.
