Atlanta police and an FBI Task Force arrested D'Angelo Broughton and Andrekco Henderson on June 30, 2026, in connection with a 2022 homicide near Georgia State University. APD said both men were charged with murder and taken to the Fulton County Jail, bringing a formal arrest after more than three years of investigation into the shooting at 120 Piedmont Avenue NE.

Police first responded to the scene on Dec. 4, 2022, around 4:18 p.m., after a person shot call at the RaceTrac location on Piedmont Avenue NE. Officers found a 24-year-old man suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. Emergency crews took him to Grady Hospital, where he later died.

The victim was later identified in local reporting and in an obituary as Joshua Eghosa Igbinijesu, 24. 11Alive reported that Igbinijesu was a Georgia State University student, and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s 2022 homicide tracker listed him as shot and killed at the gas station near the campus on Dec. 4. WSB-TV reported that Georgia State officials told students by email overnight that the shooting appeared to be targeted, although investigators had not publicly pinned down a motive.

APD identified the arrested men as D'Angelo Broughton, born in December 1999, and Andrekco Henderson, born in May 1999. The department said the FBI Task Force assisted in the arrests, a detail that points to the additional manpower behind a case that had remained open since the 2022 shooting in Downtown Atlanta. The arrest update did not lay out the evidence that led to the charges, but the timing marked the first major public procedural shift since the homicide.

The case sits at the edge of Georgia State’s campus safety concerns, where the 120 Piedmont Avenue address and the RaceTrac on Piedmont Avenue have become fixed landmarks in the record of the killing. APD also maintains open crime data and annual reports for public review, and the department’s latest arrest update now moves the case from an unsolved downtown shooting into Fulton County’s court system, where the next filings will show how prosecutors build the murder case.
