On an April afternoon in 2022, 27-year-old Rajae Quick of Florence, South Carolina, got into a car on Marsh Avenue for a ride that ended in deadly violence. Accounts say Quick and another passenger, identified as Shavaris McShan of Florence, began arguing in the vehicle. Around 4 p.m. that argument reportedly escalated when both men produced weapons and opened fire on each other while the car was still moving.

First responders pulled both men from the vehicle and performed CPR; both were pronounced dead. A woman driving the car was struck but survived and was expected to recover. Two children in the back seat were uninjured. Florence Police, assisted by the Sheriff’s Office, canvassed the area, used K-9 units, and treated the driver and children as victims rather than suspects.

Rajae is remembered in online memorials and obituaries as a person rooted in Florence and known by many. If anyone has information about that afternoon on Marsh Avenue, can you share what you know?
