BROOKHAVEN, GA — Police are looking to identify two women seen with a man who was violently murdered inside a local hotel. The body of Miguel Angel Munoz, 28, was found by the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel cleaning staff about 11:30 am Wednesday, Sept. 4. Munoz died "as the result of a violent act that took place inside the room," Sgt. David Snively said during a Tuesday press conference.

Police believe Munoz was killed between between 5:30 and 6 am on Sept. 4. Snively said two women were seen with Munoz before he was found, but he did not classify them as suspects.
