In the quiet evening of November 1, 2020, in Albany, Georgia, the life of 25-year-old Tony Joshell Moses, a male, was tragically cut short. He was in his yard on South Jackson Street when he became the victim of a drive-by shooting. Struck by a single bullet to his upper body, Moses managed to make his way inside his residence, where he collapsed.
A woman inside the home was startled awake by a loud noise around 6:40 p.m. and discovered Moses in the hallway. Emergency services were called, and he was rushed to a local hospital, but his injuries proved fatal. The incident marked the 18th homicide in Dougherty County that year.
Albany Police Department's Robbery/Homicide Unit promptly began an investigation into the shooting. Officers at the scene recovered shell casings and spoke with neighbors who reported hearing a gunshot. However, initial interviews did not yield any witnesses to the crime itself.
In the years that have followed, there have been no public announcements regarding any arrests made or suspects identified in connection with the death of Tony Moses. The case remains an open and ongoing investigation, leaving a community and a family waiting for answers and for justice to be served.
