On the morning of December 27, 2018, 39-year-old Aubrey Miquel Zanders was shot after confronting people who were trying to break into a nearby storage area at his home on Ashley Hall Road in Charleston, South Carolina. Zanders was taken to a hospital and later died of his injuries. Before he died he gave investigators a limited description of one person involved as a Black male with dreadlocks.

The Charleston County Sheriff’s Office describes the investigation as difficult and the case later went cold. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. The sheriff’s office continues to list the case as open and has asked the community for tips.

If anyone has information about that night, the people seen in the area, or other details that could help investigators, please come forward and share what is known.
