Police investigating early Saturday death off Edgewood Ave.

ATLANTA — A man was shot and killed after an argument, police believe, east of downtown Atlanta off Edgewood Ave. early Saturday morning.

Lt. Andrea Webster of Atlanta Police said a call came in around 3 a.m. to William Holmes Borders Senior Drive, where police found a man shot dead on the sidewalk near an apartment building.
