An Atlanta man is dead after what was supposed to be a quick Craigslist sale of a Playstation 4 gaming console turned tragic, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Daniel John Zeitz, 28, listed the gaming system for sale on Craigslist, and went to meet the potential buyers, 20-year-old Nathaniel Vivian and a 16-year-old female whose name is not being released, in a parking lot Friday night. A Sandy Springs police officer, Sgt. Ron Momon, said the two tried to rob Zeitz.

As Zeits struggled with Vivian, pictured above, the girl, whose 16-month-old was in the backseat of the car, grabbed a .25 caliber and shot it, sending a bullet through Vivian’s hand and into Zeitz’s chest, killing him. The two were arrested when they visited the hospital to treat the gunshot wound on Vivian’s hand.

Vivian originally told police he was the victim of a crime, but then admitted to attempting to rob Zeitz and shooting him. Vivian is now being held in the Fulton County jail without bond, as is the girl, who will be tried as an adult.
