King Von Death Timeline: from the 2020 Atlanta Shooting to Lil Durk's Court Acquittal
Bennett suffered devastating internal damage. First responders and crew members rushed him to Grady Memorial Hospital in critical condition. Despite emergency surgery, doctors pronounced him dead later that morning. The Fulton County Medical Examiner documented multiple close-range gunshot wounds to the abdomen, chest, and back.
The initial narrative surrounding the shooting was tangled. Rumors spread that off-duty Atlanta police officers had shot Bennett during the chaotic exchange. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) stepped in to conduct an independent review of the officer-involved shooting.
Ballistics examinations clarified the timeline. The GBI confirmed that while two off-duty officers had discharged their service weapons to neutralize an active gun battle, Bennett’s fatal wounds came from a civilian firearm. Two other men, 34-year-old Mark Blakely and 26-year-old Angelo Lucci, died during the crossfire. Three individuals sustained non-fatal gunshot injuries, including the primary shooter.
