ATLANTA (AP) Atlanta police say the same gun was used to kill two men who were shot as they slept outside in Atlanta last month. <br /> <br /> Now, police hope the bullets will lead them to the killer. <br /> <br /> Atlanta police Det. David Quinn said the bullets -- 45 Colt 200 gr JHP -- haven't been manufactured since 2010. <br /> <br /> Quinn tells WSB-TV that investigators hope the new information generates leads from the public. <br /> <br /> The latest killing happened late Nov. 25 or early Nov. 26, when Tommy Mims was shot multiple times while curled up in a blanket and sleeping. <br /> <br /> Another man, Dorian Jenkins, was found dead in a blanket on a sidewalk Nov. 23. <br /> <br /> Though a motive is unclear, investigators have said it's possible the killer targeted the men because of a grudge against homeless people. <br />
