Two Injured, One Charged With Attempted Murder in Atmore Shooting

August 9, 2025

Two people were shot Thursday evening in Atmore, and a suspect was arrested soon after for attempted murder.

Jamyron Jawuan Anderson, age 22 of Atmore, was charged with two felony counts of attempted murder and one count of discharging a firearm into an unoccupied vehicle. He was booked into the Escambia County (AL) Detention Center in Brewton and later released on bond.

About 5 p.m. Thursday, the Atmore Police Department responded to the 300 block of Everette Street after receiving several 911 calls of shots fired. They arrived to find that two people had been shot. One victim was transported to a trauma center with non-life threatening injuries. The second victim was grazed by a bullet and treated at the scene.

“The incident stemmed from a long-running domestic issue between two other parties,” Atmore Police said.

Editor’s note: For unknown reasons, Anderson’s mug shot was not made available by the Escambia County (AL) Detention Center.

    I live 20 yards from this shooting, I have 3 toddlers and a wife. I was standing outside when it all started and talked to one of the victims. There is no justice in none of Atmore because the cops let people do what they want. They pull them over all day. How many actually get punished for the crime. Guy shoots 2 people and out within 24 hours. How does that happen Atmore PD?

    Quick release and jail not displaying his photo online – he’s probably a paid informant or traded info for release.

    ” two felony counts of attempted murder ” and “released on bond” should never be in the same story. We are not Baltimore, NYC or LA.

    I lived, worked and loved Atmore for 12 years of my life. Can’t believe how much has changed. I thought Mobile was a place I’d never go again, but now Atmore almost feels like going to the casino and don’t stop anywhere along the way to visit, shop or eat! Please tell me this will stop!

    Released on bond??????? He attempted to murder two people and walks free. I just don’t get it.

    Two FELONY counts of attempted murder, with other charges and released on bond?

    There are various programs with “stupid criminals” and these stories make me wonder if that adjective would be appropriate for those presiding over this type of case.
