Atlanta – A man shot a teenager who accidentally knocked on the wrong door of an apartment in Atlanta, reported WSB-TV. That happened around noon on Friday Friday at The Retreat Apartments complex in southwest Atlanta, according to the resort.
Omarian Banks, 19, was deposed by a Lyft near the wrong passage in the complex, police said, according to WSB-TV. Banks and his girlfriend had just moved into the complex and Banks was not aware of the area, police said. Banks used FaceTime to talk to his girlfriend when he knocked on the door that he thought was his. Shortly after, he moved away.
The man inside, Darryl Bynes, 32, took a gun and went to his balcony to face Banks, police said. They said that after a short conversation, Bynes had shot him. Police said Bynes had told them that he had shot Banks in self-defense.
Banks' girlfriend, Zsakeria Mathis, recounted what she had heard at the FaceTime call.
"I just hear weak voices and a shot, and then I hear it scream," Mathis told WSB-TV. "And I heard all the fear in his voice and he was right:" I'm sorry! I'm at the wrong door! "The man was saying," No, you're not. Are not at the wrong door! "And he fired twice more, then the silence is done."
Michael Wallace, a friend of the family, described Banks as a hardworking man who did not bother anyone. "It's a 19-year-old kid who did not even deserve to die and who had not even lived his life," Wallace told WSB-TV.
Bynes is accused of murder. We do not know if he has a lawyer.
Makayla Johnson, who identified herself as Bynes' cousin, told WSB – TV that the charge was unfair.
"He's an innocent father," said Johnson. "He has five kids, his truck was stolen earlier this week, and right now he's just trying to protect his family."
