On the night of December 30, 2020, a black sedan stopped abruptly in the 100 block of North Kings Highway in Myrtle Beach. A woman ran from the car screaming that her husband had been shot; in the passenger seat lay 23-year-old Quashaun Bromell with a gunshot wound to the head. The shooting happened around 10 p.m. and witnesses in a nearby Waffle House parking lot were first on scene. One bystander, a former Boy Scout and ROTC member, found Bromell with a slight pulse and supported his head as help arrived.

Money was visible inside the vehicle and two other men who had been in the car fled after the shooting. Myrtle Beach police later arrested 31-year-old Deangelo Alston of Myrtle Beach and 31-year-old Terry Beaufort of Kingstree and charged both with murder and with distribution of marijuana. A municipal judge denied bond for Beaufort during his initial appearance; he was already out on bond in a separate drug trafficking matter.

Does anyone who knew Quashaun or witnessed that night have information to share with investigators?
