On the evening of August 23, 2021, gunfire on Hobson Street in Westminster, South Carolina, left 54-year-old Rodney Johnson dead from a gunshot wound to the head. Deputies from the Oconee County Sheriff’s Office pronounced Johnson deceased at the scene after responding to a call around 6:30 p.m.

Initial witness reports described a woman fleeing after the shooting, and 37-year-old Carrie Leigh Tyner, who lived at the Hobson Street residence, was arrested the next day and charged with murder. Those charges were dismissed on September 2, 2021, after investigators said Tyner was present but found no evidence she was an active participant.

Investigators later charged 34-year-old Phillip Ronald Miller of Swansea with the murder; the arrest warrant alleges Miller shot Johnson in the head and arm. Does anyone have information about Rodney Johnson, the Hobson Street residence, or the events of that August evening?
