Michael McKinsey Mathis, 35, was shot and killed in Newberry, South Carolina, on the night of January 18, 2020. Mathis was inside a residence at 211 Brown Chapel Drive in the Helena section when gunfire rang out outside around 11:23 p.m. A caller reported a person in the street with a gunshot wound to the chest; a Good Samaritan drove Mathis to Newberry County Memorial Hospital, where he died of a gunshot wound to the torso shortly after arrival.

Investigators found several spent rifle casings in the street and multiple bullet holes in the home where Mathis and another man were present when the shooting began. The sheriff’s office reviewed surrounding surveillance footage and asked residents with home security cameras to provide any video.

Is there anyone in the Helena or Brown Chapel Drive area who saw suspicious activity or who can help identify the vehicle involved?
