Joe Clark, 61, a pastor and Bible teacher at the First Baptist Church of Harrietts Bluff, was fatally shot on April 27, 2025, in the gated Deerwood Village neighborhood of Woodbine, Georgia. Known as Pastor Joe, an Army veteran who had recently celebrated his 41st wedding anniversary, he was found in the middle of a road with multiple gunshot wounds shortly after speaking at his church. He was taken to a local hospital in critical condition and later died.

Clark’s young grandson suffered a gunshot wound to the arm that required airlifting to a hospital and was expected to recover. The motive remains unclear; Clark’s son said he did not understand why his father and grandson were in that neighborhood that day. The Camden County Sheriff’s Office is reviewing multiple security camera videos and has asked witnesses and residents with footage to come forward. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified.

Does anyone in Deerwood Village or nearby have security footage or information that could help explain what happened that afternoon?
