On the evening of July 3, 2025, 19-year-old Jamarion King was walking home from a barber shop in the 1600 block of West Highland Avenue in Albany, Georgia, when gunfire was reported around 4:37 p.m. Police found two people with gunshot wounds; both were taken to Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, where Jamarion King died of his injuries.

Albany Police investigators used surveillance footage, witness interviews, and forensic analysis and identified several individuals believed connected to the shooting. Authorities say the motive is believed to be gang-related and part of an ongoing dispute between rival groups. One man, Markelvin Hicks, was taken into custody and faces charges of murder and aggravated assault in connection with King’s death. Investigators are also seeking 20-year-old Kayveon Lyles and 17-year-old Jaquan McIntyre, identified as the shooters, and have named 21-year-old Jaquan Jordan as a person of interest. A reward has been offered for information leading to further arrests.

Does anyone who lived in that neighborhood or who was near West Highland Avenue that evening have information that could help the investigation?
