On the afternoon of September 30, 2019, emergency responders were called to a home on Fountain Brook Lane in Fountain Inn, South Carolina, after reports of a shooting. Officers found 30-year-old Justin Keith Durham suffering from a critical gunshot wound to the chest at about 3:45 p.m. He was pronounced dead and the Laurens County Coroner’s Office ruled the manner of death homicide.

Fountain Inn detectives determined the shooting arose from a domestic dispute and identified a female participant who admitted to shooting Durham. Investigators noted a documented history of domestic violence involving Durham, with records stretching back to 2011 and a charge of first-degree domestic violence recorded exactly one year before his death. No arrests were made, the woman was not publicly identified, and prosecutors declined to file charges after reviewing the investigation.

Durham, a Taylors resident, was survived by two sons, his parents, and siblings and was memorialized at services in Travelers Rest that week. Does anyone have information about the events at the Fountain Brook Lane residence that afternoon?
