Daughter wants justice after her father was killed
Clayton County Police are investigating the death of an elderly man. Family members believe he was attacked inside his home by someone he knew and trusted, but they claim the person responsible told police a different story.
Clayton County Police are investigating the death of the elderly man.
“There is a murderer walking around your streets,” said Gahra Wright, the daughter of the victim.
It’s a journey for answers. She says it started July 26 when family members didn’t hear from the 77-year-old Ivan Wright, so a neighbor went to check.
Medics rushed Ivan to the hospital, but family members claim Clayton County Police didn’t begin investigating because the man told police Ivan was attacked in downtown Atlanta, which is out of their jurisdiction.
“The only way that we were able to get the police department to do anything was to get the biohazard team that we hired to come out and they believed the police had to be brought in,” said Wright.
Wright says her father was placed on life-support but later died at the hospital.
Family members say the victim had bone cancer.
