DECATUR, Ga. (AP) -- A man being held in the Richmond County jail has been charged with murder in the shooting of an Atlanta college student.
Police say 23-year-old Joseph Thomas is charged with the shooting of 22-year-old Greggory Savelio on Aug. 22.
DeKalb County Police spokesman Jason Gagnon said Tuesday that Savelio had stopped at a gas station about 6 p.m. when gunfire erupted.
The Richmond County Sheriff's Office says Thomas is being held on unrelated murder charges.
Savelio was studying business marketing at Westwood College while working full-time. He was scheduled to graduate in 2010. His mother says he attended Westwood College in Chicago but transferred to the Atlanta campus so he could be closer to his father, who lives in the area.
