Thomas Michael DiLorenzo, 63, was fatally shot during a morning walk with his wife near King and Clifford streets in Charleston, South Carolina, at about 6:15 a.m. on July 17, 2020. The couple had recently moved to Charleston for the wife’s new post as provost at the College of Charleston; DiLorenzo had recently retired after serving as provost at the University of North Dakota.

During the attempted robbery DiLorenzo was shot and later died at a nearby hospital; his wife was not physically harmed. Police say the shooting was tied to a short crime spree involving a stolen vehicle. Three teenagers — two 15-year-olds and one 16-year-old — were arrested; authorities charged all three as adults with murder and attempted armed robbery, and one teen was charged with possession of a deadly weapon during the commission of a violent crime.

Does anyone have information about the encounter that morning or about the vehicle linked to the crime?
