Joe Montgomery was 89 when he was found dead in his Ashville, Alabama, home on July 5, 2017, the victim of a fatal gunshot wound. Deputies from the St. Clair County Sheriff’s Office classified the discovery as suspicious and opened a homicide investigation.

Investigators collected evidence and sought public tips, but there have been no public announcements of arrests or identified suspects. The case appears to have gone cold with no publicly disclosed persons of interest, motives, or further progress.

Anyone who knew Joe, lived in Ashville in 2017, or has information about his death is asked to come forward.
