Moments after George Dillard, 24, of Chattanooga and his girlfriend, Lakita Hicks, 25, also of Chattanooga were shot to death, Hick’s five year old called 911.

Dispatch:

“Okay what happened”

Child:

“My Daddy and Mother got shot”.

Dispatch:

“Who is there with you right now?”

Child:

“Nobody.”

Dispatch:

“You know who did it?”

Child:

No.

At one point, the child is heard asking the dispatcher to tell police officers to come to his home.

“Yes I got them on the way to you now. Okay. Stay on the phone with me,” said the dispatcher.

The operator then asked child if someone came into the house.

“First they were in the backyard but now a dude shot them,” said the child.

Right before officers arrived on scene, the child told dispatch that both his mom and her boyfriend are dead inside the house.

During a press conference, Chattanooga Police Chief Fred Fletcher told reporters that solving this crime has become a major priority for many of his officers who first responded to the scene.

“My officers take all violence very serious but they are taking this one personally. I’m not going to share the details with you, but there are officers who are not normally involved with investigations who are working on this.”

The five year old is now living with another family member.
