COBB COUNTY, Ga. — A metro Atlanta family who lost a loved one in a bar shooting is on a mission to get that bar to shut down.
Channel 2 Action News met up with the family of Tekilum Terrell Sunday afternoon as family members posted fliers with his picture on them.
They want Milo's Bar and Lounge on Garrison Road in Marietta to close after another shooting at the establishment last week.
In April 2013, police charged three people with killing Terrell at Milo's Bar and Lounge.
Terrell's mother, Barbara Lawson said, "They shot and killed my son there. And it's been two shootings since then. Why is he still in business?"
Thomas Milo, who owns Milo's Bar and Lounge, said he knew Terrell. Milo said Terrell was a good customer and was upset to learn he had died.
"I knew T. To come back and realize he was the one that was shot, it's really touching man," said Milo.
In the latest shooting, March 20, Cobb County police said a stray bullet hit a bystander.
Police said he survived the injuries.
Milo's owner told us he's planning to have officers in the parking lot during bar hours.
