Authorities are investigating after a man was found shot to death Thursday morning outside a home in southwest Atlanta.

Officers were called to the 1600 block of Langston Avenue near Sylvan Road about 7:30 a.m. after receiving a report of a “person down,” Atlanta police said in a news release. The man’s body was discovered on the ground in front of the home with an apparent gunshot wound.

He was later identified by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office as 19-year-old Don Juan Weaver.

It’s unclear what led to the deadly shooting. Police have not identified any suspects in the case, but said the investigation is ongoing.
