An Escambia County man is facing attempted murder charges after being arrested in connection with a December 10 shooting incident.
Cameron Michael Irby, 19, was charged by Pensacola Police with two counts of attempted murder and two counts of aggravated assault. Police say Irby is responsible for two shootings about 10:45 p.m. on December 10 in a parking lot of 711 Underwood Avenue, not far from Pensacola State College.
One victim told investigators that he was walking through the apartment complex when he was randomly shot. A second male said he was shot in the buttocks. Both were transported to a local hospital for treatment.
The shootings remain under investigation, and police said more arrests are possible. Investigators believe the shootings were drug related.

Hard to believe I use to baby sit him and never in an hundred years would I ever see this from him. I know his family very well.
His crimes are to be taken seriously, but I ask that we look further into why these shootings happen. A society that forgets people in the Justice System, zealot cops, Failed War on Drugs amd War on Poverty. All of these variables create a perfect atmosphere for crime. Solve these problems. Reduce the crime.
