PERRY, Ga. — Three people are facing charges after a man was shot and killed at a Perry motel last Thursday.
According to a release from the Perry Police Department, the shooting happened around 12:45 a.m. on July 2.
Officers responded to the Great Inn on St. Patrick's Drive in Perry and found a man suffering from gunshot wounds.

Detectives responded along with the GBI Forensics Unit to start an investigation. The police department also began an 'intense investigation', according to the release.
The team found that four people were in the motel room when Jolly was shot. The investigation led detectives to a neighboring county and then to Alabama and Indiana.
