Tyrin Pulley, a 37-year-old Black man from Laurens, South Carolina, was shot and killed along a rural stretch of Eichelberger Road in the Gray Court area during the early morning hours of July 5, 2022. Deputies and first responders found Pulley at the scene shortly after gunfire was reported around 3–4 a.m. The Laurens County Coroner ruled the death a homicide caused by multiple gunshot wounds, and the Laurens County Sheriff’s Office and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division opened an intensive investigation.

Investigators canvassed the area, collected evidence from the roadside and nearby property, and interviewed witnesses and potential leads. Authorities announced a reward and urged anyone with information to call CrimeStoppers or the sheriff’s tip lines for anonymous leads. Pulley was born in May 1985 and is survived by two children, Ava and Za’TyJay, and his parents, Sylvia Diana Philson-Pulley and Lee’Vester Pulley. Funeral services were held July 10, 2022, at Laurel Hill Baptist Church in Waterloo, with burial at Poplar Springs AME Church Cemetery in Laurens County.
