Man wanted in connection with 2022 death of Allahnia Lenoir arrested, Atlanta police say

ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) – One more piece of the puzzle has been solved in the mysterious 2022 death of Allahnia Lenoir.

Atlanta police announced Monday that Steven Oboite, 29, was arrested June 1 by officers with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. He had been wanted by the police since September 2022.

Oboite faces charges of murder and concealing a death, police previously said. Diante Reynolds and Nicholas Devon Hendrickson were previously arrested and charged in the case.

Lenoir was last seen on July 31, 2022 at an apartment on Peachtree Street in Midtown Atlanta. Her family said Lenoir, who lived in Douglasville, was there to visit a friend when she disappeared.

Police say the two women then met the suspects at the apartment. They believe Lenoir was murdered there. His body has not been found.

“Information regarding his arrest and his link to the death of Allahnia Lenoir will be available in the coming days,” police said.
