Lewis Hairston, 24, was found inside a residence on Tremont Avenue in Ladson, South Carolina, with a fatal gunshot wound on November 9, 2019. The Charleston County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene and the county coroner confirmed Hairston’s identity and cause of death.

Detectives investigated for months with few public details released. In March 2020 the Sheriff’s Office announced a suspect had been taken into custody in connection with Hairston’s death, but information about the individual’s identity, the charges, or any later legal proceedings has not been made widely available. The circumstances of what happened that November day and the ultimate resolution of the case remain incomplete.

If anyone knew Lewis, lived near Tremont Avenue, or has information about the shooting, please share what is known with the Charleston County Sheriff’s Office.
