ATLANTA -- An arrest warrant has been issued for former Georgia Tech star basketball player Javaris Crittenton in connection with the shooting death of 22-year-old Jullian Jones, Atlanta police said.
The shooting happened shortly before 10 p.m. Aug. 19 in the 2900 block of Macon Drive in southwest Atlanta.
Investigators said Jones was walking with others when she was shot. She later died.
Channel 2's Ryan Young learned about the latest developments early Friday.
Police said they don't believe Jones was the intended victim.
Police said the motive appears to be retaliation for a robbery that occurred in April in which Crittendon was a victim.
Crittendon is an NBA player who most recently played with the Washington Wizards.
