Bishardd Gray, a 49-year-old Black man born in Detroit on March 23, 1973, died after a shooting on Saturday afternoon, July 2, 2022, in Easley, South Carolina. Deputies from the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office responded shortly before 5:00 pm to a 911 call reporting a man with a gunshot wound to the torso on Green Meadow Lane and found Gray lying in the middle of the road. He was taken to Prisma Health Greenville Memorial Hospital, where he died.

Detectives identified and located numerous witnesses who were present at the scene. An adult male on site was initially detained, and all those involved were said to be cooperating with the investigation. An arrest was later made: 31-year-old Cordarrell Tashawn Gray was taken into custody and charged with voluntary manslaughter and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime.

Are there witnesses or residents who remember the July 2 afternoon on Green Meadow Lane or who have information about what led to the shooting?
