ATLANTA (AP) – A man already accused of gunning down two homeless men in their sleep and fatally shooting a hairstylist as she walked to her car now faces charges in the death of a fourth person.

Aeman Lovel Presley, 34, is charged with murder in the Sept. 27 death of Calvin Gholston at a shopping center outside Atlanta, police said Tuesday. Like two of the previous victims, Gholston was homeless, DeKalb County police Major Cornelius Yarbro said.

Last week, police charged Presley in the killing of two homeless men in Atlanta, firing multiple times while the victims were wrapped in blankets and sleeping on the sidewalk. Dorian Jenkins was killed Nov. 23, followed by Tommy Mims on Nov. 26.

Jenkins was shot five times and Mims was shot seven times, and police have described it as “overkill.”

Presley also faces a murder charge in the Dec. 6 death of Karen Pearce, a hairstylist, in Decatur, just outside Atlanta. Police said Pearce was shot as she walked to her car after leaving a downtown restaurant.
