    Snellville, GA (Gwinnett Daily Post) — One person was shot and killed Sunday evening at Walmart along Scenic Highway in Snellville.

Snellville Police said that a “quick altercation” between two groups in the parking lot at the Walmart around 5:50 p.m. led to the deadly shooting of 49-year-old Fadil Delkic.

The investigation determined that Troy Hunte, 28, Hunte’s fiancé, and Delkic got into a verbal argument in the parking lot, according to Snellville Police Det. Manley.

“The verbal argument turned physical when Mr. Hunte’s fiancé struck Mr. Delkic in the face,” Manley said.

Shortly thereafter, Hunte pulled a handgun from his pocket and shot Delkic one time in the chest, police said.

Doctors pronounced the Delkic dead at Gwinnett Medical Center as a result of the gunshot wound.

Investigators, working with the Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office, have charged Hunte with voluntary manslaughter. The fiance has not been charged at this time.
