Jayla Tranay Alexander was 18 and a Colquitt County High School senior when she was killed in a drive-by shooting on November 9, 2019, in the 800 block of 12th Avenue Southeast in Moultrie, Georgia. Multiple rounds were fired at a residence where Jayla and others were present; she was taken to a local hospital but died of her injuries. Law enforcement called in the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to assist.

Investigators recovered multiple shell casings and projectiles across nearly half a city block and documented damage to nearby houses and vehicles. Another shooting in Moultrie the same evening resulted in an arrest in that separate case, and authorities said they were examining whether the two incidents were connected.

If anyone knew Jayla or has information about the November 9, 2019, shooting, please share what you know with the GBI or local law enforcement.
