Reginald Folks, 35, was killed while working a Lyft shift in Union City, Georgia. On May 15, 2024, at about 12:30 a.m., he was driving along South Fulton Parkway when a passenger, identified as off-duty Atlanta police officer Koby Minor, shot him during a confrontation in the vehicle. Minor told investigators he feared he was being abducted after hearing another voice and said he tried to exit the car at a red light but found the door locked; he says he fired when Folks reached into the back seat.

Minor broke a window to escape and was arrested at the scene. He was already on unpaid administrative leave from the Atlanta Police Department at the time of the shooting and resigned after his arrest. Folks’s family described him as a loving, hard-working man who hoped one day to become a professional wrestler.
