In the early evening of March 30, 2026, a burst of gunfire shattered the peace at the Cameron Crossing Apartment Complex in Lagrange, Georgia. When police responded to the scene at approximately 5:35 p.m., they discovered a tragic scene in the parking lot. Twenty-six-year-old Jakhala Marshay Moss was found unresponsive, having sustained a fatal gunshot wound. As emergency medical aid was rendered to Moss, witnesses at the scene alerted officers to the possibility of a second victim.
Following this information, officers entered Moss's apartment and found 18-year-old Jamarcus Kennedy, who had also been shot. Despite the efforts of first responders, both Moss and Kennedy were pronounced dead at the scene. The initial investigation suggests that Kennedy was shot outside and managed to run into Moss's apartment before succumbing to his injuries. Jakhala Moss was a mother to a boy and a girl.
Investigators believe that two male suspects approached the apartment building on foot and opened fire on both victims before fleeing the area. Law enforcement has indicated that the shooting is believed to be gang-related. As of the latest reports, no arrests have been made in connection with the murders of Jakhala Moss and Jamarcus Kennedy. Police are actively investigating the double homicide and have appealed to the public for any information that may lead to the identification and apprehension of the suspects.
