Lenorris Jordan.

A few hours after a Moultrie man was gunned down outside an apartment building, police had a 23-year-old male suspect in custody.

Racieh Robinson, 28, was pronounced dead at 11:20 a.m. at Colquitt Regional Medical Center, Colquitt Coroner Verlyn Brock said. Robinson died of a gunshot wound to the head.

Residents at the Paradise apartment complex said that Robinson was shot down in the parking lot. Police had put up a perimeter of crime scene tape and had finished work there by about 1 p.m.

On Monday afternoon, the Moultrie Police Department said that Robinson was involved in an argument with Lenorris Jordan, 23.

“Evidently there was some type of altercation at Paradise apartments,” police Inv. Steven Colgan said. “The victim ended up getting shot.”

It was still early in the investigation, and additional details will not be revealed until later, he said.

Jordan was found hiding in a farm semi truck cab on Monday afternoon in the 700 block of McMullen Road.

On Monday afternoon, several small groups were standing around the apartment complex. No one said he saw anything.

One woman said that she was asleep and heard at least one gunshot.

Another woman said she went to high school with the victim and that he was nice and was a good football player.

Neither wanted to give her name.

Robinson’s Facebook page said that he was a 2003 graduate of Colquitt County High and that he worked at Sanderson Farms, a poultry processing plant here in Colquitt County.

Robinson had several felony arrests in his past, but none appeared to have involved violence. He had served prison sentences after a Colquitt County 2006 conviction for entering an auto and in 2011 on a count of burglary, according to the Georgia Department of Corrections. He served about three years total in state prison.

A search on Jordan on Monday did not turn up any felony convictions. He pleaded guilty to traffic charges in October in Moultrie Municipal Court.

Robinson’s shooting was the sixth slaying in the county in 2013. All but two of those occurred in the city of Moultrie.
