A Cobb County man was arrested early Sunday after a double shooting left one dead, according to police.

Courtney Rashun Woullard, 42, of Austell, is accused of shooting two men around 12:30 a.m. Sunday at a home on Linworth Boulevard near Austell, according to police. Woullard was charged with murder, two counts of aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, his arrest warrant states.

“Said accused, while armed with a .45-caliber pistol, shot two people, which resulted in one person’s death,” the arrest warrant states.

Jeffrey Moore, 54, of LaGrange, was shot in the abdomen and died from his injuries, according to police. A 44-year-old man was shot in the torso and groin and taken to the hospital, where he was considered stable, police said Monday.

No information was released on a possible motive.

Woullard was taken into custody at the scene and later charged. He was booked into the Cobb jail, where he was being held without bond Monday.

The shooting remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Cobb police Major Crimes Unit at 770-499-3945.
