A camping trip in Lane County ended in a fatal shooting. Steven Troy Moody, a 48-year-old White/Caucasian man from Eugene, was at Mona Campground in Blue River on the night of July 1, 2017, with his family and another family. In the early morning hours someone in the group was awakened by loud noises believed to be gunshots. That person retrieved a firearm and fired at a figure moving through the campsite; the figure was Steven Moody.

Moody suffered a fatal gunshot wound and was taken to a hospital, where he died. The friend who fired also received a gunshot wound and was treated; investigators determined the shooting was intentional rather than an accidental discharge. Law enforcement took the friend into custody and the Lane County District Attorney’s Office filed a murder charge in connection with Moody’s death. Does anyone who was at Mona Campground that night or who knew Steven or the other family have information that could clarify what happened?
