Cops: Kennesaw Man Was Shot

The Kennesaw man found dead this week at a home on Paul Samuel Road had been shot.

"He was shot in the carport of his home," said Sgt. Dana Pierce with the Cobb County Police Department. "He died from a gunshot wound."

But Pierce would not discuss how many times 60-year-old Frank William Davidson was shot, where he was shot, what kind of gun was used in the shooting or any other details "because of this ongoing investigation."

About 7:45 a.m. Monday, a family member discovered Davidson's body in the carport of the home at 3591 Paul Samuel Rd. and called 911, he said. For much of Monday, the police department referred to the case as a "suspicious death." By that evening, the department upgraded it to a "murder investigation."

The department is asking anyone with information about the murder to call 770-499-3945.

"We're continuing to look into every aspect of this murder and we will run every lead out that we get from the public to the fullest extent," Pierce said.
