Atlanta police are investigating after a man was fatally stabbed behind a CVS store near Greenbriar Mall on Sunday night.
Officers responded at around 8 p.m. to the retail pharmacy, located in a shopping plaza on Headland Drive in southwest Atlanta. When they arrived, they found a man with several stab wounds outside the CVS, which had closed at 6 p.m., police said.
Emergency crews pronounced the victim dead at the scene, according to authorities. He was identified as 34-year-old Dominique Sanjurjo by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office on Tuesday.
No motive was provided, and it’s unclear what led to the stabbing.
Police on Tuesday said they were looking for a person of interest who was seen in surveillance footage with blond hair and wearing a black shirt as she walked into the CVS.
About two hours later on Sunday, police were called to a home about six miles away in the Capitol View neighborhood, where a man was found shot and lying in a driveway. The man, who was not publicly identified, died at a hospital, police said. A SWAT team later conducted a sweep of the residence after homicide investigators made a “narcotics connection” upon their arrival, Lt. Andrew Smith said.
Suspects have not been identified in either incident, and both remain under investigation.
