    a good friend of mine was shot in the back of the head last night in lawrenceville/suwanee. he passed away at about 8:30 this morning. please keep him and his family in your prayers. he will be missed soooo much. he was such a good kid... good hearted, genuine, free-spirited... he had a son too... i can't believe this.... im so sad... i dont even know what to say.

    for those of you who know people by cars.. he used to have a blue civic si that was boosted, then bought a black sti which was dropped on stock gold wheels, and recently bought a silver IS.

    i will miss you bro..

    Man shot in Lawrenceville has died

    * Man shot in Lawrenceville has died

    A man shot Thursday night at a home near Lawrenceville has died, Gwinnett County police said Friday.

    The shooting occurred about 8 p.m. Thursday at 2309 Five Forks Trickum Road, in a one-story, siding house near Moon Place Road.

    A resident of the neighborhood behind the house reported hearing gunshots to an officer who was making a routine patrol there.

    Police found Ricardo Santos Dicks, 21, lying on the floor of the home with gunshot wounds, police spokesman Cpl. Darren Moloney said.

    Dicks, who Moloney said was a visitor at the house, was taken to Gwinnett Medical Center, where he died Friday morning.

    A police crime scene van and other officers were still at the scene after 10:30 p.m. The residence was quiet Friday morning, with no cars in the driveway.

    Investigators were interviewing three people who live at the residence, as well as neighbors. Moloney said he wasn’t sure whether the three residents were all home at the time of the shooting.

    from what i have heard... he was at a friends house chillin... one of the guys that lived there was at the gym and the other in his room.. i guess Rico was in the living room when the front door got kicked in... shots fired. he probably tried to run as the door got kicked... they found his body on the floor of the hallway. the guy that was in his room "somehow" escaped unharmed and from what i know, didn't see a thing.

    neighbors heard the gunshot and then went to get some help.. whoever did this left him for dead... i dont know anything else. but to me, it seems like he was set up.

    Thats crazy man, Last time i was over you spoke of him. I guess you have to let god work and let him rest in peace. This is truly a horrible situation for anyone to deal with. I will keep his family and friends in my prayers

    Damn he looked like a good kid. Not the kind of guy that you would expect something like this to happen. i hope that they get to the bottom of this and that the killer gets what he deserves.

    Prayers for the family.

    it was a long night, so sad. RIco was over just the other day, the nicest person i have ever met, always willing to help, never had a care in the world.

    you will be deeply missed

    you know... i still can't beleive he's gone.. i dont know how im gonna make it thru work.. rico was a fucking great guy... and i just cant find a way to understand what happpened to him.

    he has left a son.. his woman, his family and good friends.. and all i can say is that i will pray for him.. and i'll miss him at times when i drive my STi.. i will remember racing rico for shits and giggles.. and in mind i guess he'll always be there.
