Authorities are investigating the death of a man this weekend in his home at the Athens Gardens apartment complex.

Thomas Lamar Carter, 40, was found dead Sunday afternoon in the living room of his apartment on Coleridge Court.

He was last seen alive by neighbors Friday night when he used their phone to call the police.

911 records indicate that he had called to report two people at his apartment “who should not be there.”

The neighbors gave police the name of a man with whom Carter had been fighting, telling the police the man “was mad at Carter after the fight.”

A police report noted that the apartment’s back door was unlocked and handprints were on an open window as though someone had pushed it up in order to get into the apartment.

A tire iron was found under a couch next to Carter’s body.

Patrol officers turned the scene over to detectives and county Coroner Michael Eberhart.
