AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) - The Richmond County Sheriff’s Office is searching for a suspect accused of shooting a victim after they opened their front door, authorities announced Thursday.
Deputies say they responded to the 1000 block of McNutt Way on July 7 about an aggravated assault that happened around 10 p.m.
When deputies arrived, the victim told deputies the suspect, Derick Kilgore, 40, knocked on her front door - but when she answered, he shot her, officials say.
A witness told deputies Kilgore and his wife came to visit her, even though she did not want Kilgore on her property.
Kilgore went outside, she told officials, then she heard a gunshot.
When Kilgore came back inside to get his belongings, she asked what he was shooting, she told authorities.
Kilgore responded that he “felt like shooting,” according to the witness.
The witness told officials Kilgore’s wife brought her over to the victim’s camper, and inside was the victim who had been shot.
According to authorities, the witness said Kilgore and his wife left in an unknown dark blue Durango.
Kilgore is described by officials to be five feet and seven inches in height and weighing around 165 pounds.
He is known to frequent the areas of McNutt Way and Bennock Mill Road, according to authorities.
Any information concerning Kilgore, please contact Investigator Robert Ferraro at 706-821-1464, or any on-duty Investigator with the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office at 706-821-1020 or 706-821-1080.

Thought? As of today’s posting date, there is still a posting on the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office- Georgia’s Facebook page seeking information on Kilgore’s whereabouts. It is unclear if Kilgore’s wife is believed to be with him still, but since articles don’t mention her as either missing or a suspect, I will be respectful and not inquire further on that unless there is ever anything official.
