On the afternoon of February 26, 2019, 20-year-old Zuinquarius McCorey and 23-year-old Malik McCullough were found inside a Chevrolet Impala that had crashed into a fence at Chestnut Street and Jones Avenue in Rock Hill, South Carolina. First responders called to what appeared to be an accident discovered both men had been shot and were pronounced dead at the scene in what became a double homicide investigation.

Police initially said they had no solid leads and believed the attack was not random, thinking the victims likely knew their assailant. Investigators later focused on a 16-year-old acquaintance, Sam Saadiq Robinson, after witnesses reported seeing him run from the scene and then return, claiming to check on the victims. Prosecutors described both victims as having been shot in the back of the head.

The motive reported by investigators involved Robinson’s efforts to gain status within a gang and concerns about retaliation after he had fired shots at a house the day before. If anyone knew McCorey or has information about that afternoon, please share what you remember with authorities.
