Unidentified Gunman Killed Camron Moore on Radium Springs Road
The Albany Police Department is deep into an investigation after a late-night shooting turned deadly on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, leaving one man dead and another wounded in Albany, Georgia.
It all went down around 11:13 p.m. in the 1900 block of Radium Springs Road, where two men were cruising in their car when gunfire erupted—unidentified suspects unloading a barrage that peppered their vehicle with bullets.
The car rolled on, riddled with holes, until it ground to a halt in the 1500 block, a quiet stretch near the Flint River that became anything but peaceful. “It sounded like a war out there,” a resident said, still hearing the echoes of chaos that broke the night.
Officers arrived fast, lights cutting through the dark, only to find one of the men lifeless inside the shot-up car—Camron Moore, a name now tied to Albany’s latest tragedy, pronounced dead at the scene. The second man, hit but hanging on, was rushed off to Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, his condition a question mark as medics worked to save him.
“We got him out quick, but it was bad,” a first responder said, voice tight with the urgency of those frantic minutes. Police haven’t said who he is yet, holding that close until family gets the word, a courtesy that can’t ease the pain but keeps the process human.
The cops are calling it a deliberate attack—two guys driving along, then bam, bullets flying from the shadows. What sparked it? No one’s saying yet—could be a grudge, a turf thing, or just the wrong place at the wrong time—but the shell casings scattered across Radium Springs Road tell a story of intent.
“We’re tearing this apart to figure it out,” a detective said, eyes on the pavement where the car stopped, now a crime scene crawling with investigators. They’re knocking on doors, hunting for cameras, anything to ID the shooters who melted into the night, leaving a trail of blood and questions.
Albany’s no stranger to this kind of heartbreak—Radium Springs Road’s seen its share of violence, a corridor that cuts through the city’s south side where life can turn hard fast. This is the ninth homicide of 2025 in Dougherty County, and it’s only March, a pace that’s got folks on edge.
“It’s too much, too soon,” a neighbor said, shaking her head as she watched the police work under the morning sun. Camron Moore’s gone, the other guy’s fighting, and the city’s left counting losses again—another night, another name, another family broken. The hospital’s quiet on updates, but the streets aren’t, buzzing with whispers of who and why.
Thursday’s barely cracked open, and the investigation’s in overdrive—Albany PD’s promising to chase this down, urging anyone with a scrap of info to call 229-431-2100 or Crime Stoppers at 229-436-8477 if they’d rather stay nameless. “We need eyes out there,” an officer said, a plea to a community that’s seen too much of this.
