Cartersville police say a man was shot to death in an apparent robbery on Sunday night.

According to Chief Thomas N. Culpepper of the Carters­ville Police Department:

Police discovered the victim at the Sun-Glo Car Wash on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive on Sunday night at around 11:08.

When officers arrived, they discovered Randal Statler Jr., 28, of Cartersville was deceased. He had been shot one time and evidence pointed to a robbery.

Statler had apparently been mudding earlier with family members and had come to the car wash to wash the mud off of his pickup truck.

It is unknown how much if any money had been taken. There are no suspects, police said.

“We have had several officers and investigators working on this unfortunate incident throughout the night,” Culpepper said in a press release.

The investigation is continuing.
