Cyrus Norwood, 30, was found inside a vehicle at Shadowood West Apartments on West Highland Drive in Macon, Georgia, on the evening of November 10, 2021. He had suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Coroner’s Office.

Within a day investigators arrested 20-year-old Braylon Alexander Jones on Arkwright Road and charged him with Norwood’s murder. Prosecutors later dropped the murder and related charges in 2022, citing uncooperative key witnesses and the need for additional crime lab analysis; the dismissal was without prejudice. Jones remained in custody on unrelated pending charges.

The death investigation remains active. Does anyone who lived near Shadowood West Apartments or knew Cyrus or his routines have information that could help investigators?
