Officers were called at 10:30 p.m. to the Reno Villas apartments, 5055 Jeffreys St., near South Eastern and East Reno avenues, after ShotSpotter technology detected gunshots, and found McMillam in the breezeway between apartments suffering from one gunshot wound, the Review-Journal previously reported.

No one had been arrested in connection with the shooting as of Thursday.
