Marcus Lewis, a 44-year-old Black man, was killed by gunfire while a passenger in a white Dodge Charger that was stopped at a downtown intersection in Albany, Georgia. The shooting occurred shortly after 10:00 p.m. on April 10, 2022, at the corner of Jackson Street and Broad Avenue. A second man in the Charger was wounded; after the attack the vehicle struck a light pole. Emergency responders found Lewis dead at the scene and the other victim was taken to a local hospital.

Investigators say another vehicle approached and someone inside opened fire. Early in the inquiry detectives focused on a red Dodge Challenger as the attackers’ possible vehicle, but the trail went cold and there were no arrests in the months afterward. In May 2023 authorities renewed a public appeal for information. The shooting remains unsolved and no suspects have been publicly identified or charged.

Anyone who knew Marcus or has information about the April 10, 2022 shooting is asked to contact the Albany Police Department at (229) 431-2100 or Albany Crime Stoppers at (229) 436-TIPS.
