A late-night shooting in Cartersville, Georgia, left 65-year-old Jimmy Lee Morgan dead on April 4, 2025. Officers were called to the 100 block of North Tennessee Street just before 11:15 p.m. and found Morgan in a convenience store parking lot with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police say the investigation quickly focused on 25-year-old Alleya Noel Henry. Henry reportedly called 911 saying she had shot a man who had run at her Jeep and tried to climb in through the window. Moments earlier a separate 911 call described a man later identified as Morgan making threatening statements and gestures; that first caller drove away without a physical confrontation. When officers detained Henry near the scene, they found a 9mm shell casing on the driver’s seat, another casing in the center console, a black semi-automatic handgun on the passenger seat, and a black pistol case on the floorboard.

Henry was arrested and charged with malice murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. The investigation into the circumstances of the shooting is ongoing. Does anyone have information about Morgan’s activities that night or who witnessed what happened in the parking lot?
