Michael Raymond Patton, 45, was found dead from a gunshot wound in his Highland Drive home in McDonough, Georgia, after a call to emergency services around 2 a.m. on a Sunday morning in April 2014. Officers also discovered 44-year-old Tonia Lynn Gantt in the house with a head wound.
Investigators concluded the incident was a planned robbery that turned deadly. Authorities say Gantt conspired with 49-year-old Joseph Franklin Norris to rob Patton; gunfire erupted during the robbery and Patton was killed. Gantt’s head wound was reportedly inflicted during the altercation. Both Gantt and Norris were arrested and charged with Patton’s murder; Gantt was additionally charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute.
Does anyone have information about the events at the Highland Drive residence or knew Patton, Gantt, or Norris?
