Caleb Mykel Donnelly, 29, was shot to death inside a home on Highway 178 South in Ninety Six, South Carolina, in the early morning hours of June 19, 2021. Deputies and emergency personnel found him with multiple gunshot wounds and the Greenwood County Coroner pronounced him dead at the scene; the death was investigated as a homicide.

Donnelly was known locally as a tattoo artist and a writer. He was the son of Connie Kotzur Morgan and the late Nelson Gene Donnelly III and is survived by three children, Kyleigh, Alynna, and Jaxon, two brothers, Mathew and Jonathan, and extended family. A memorial service was held at Harley Funeral Home chapel.

Investigators quickly identified a primary suspect, 30-year-old William Bryan Morgan Jr., who was reported last seen on a black 2012 Yamaha motorcycle and considered armed and dangerous. Morgan was later located, arrested and charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. The motive has not been released.
