Corey Gabe Jr. was 24 when he was shot and killed on the evening of February 4, 2018, in the West Ashley neighborhood of Charleston, South Carolina. Police found him unresponsive on Jaywood Circle around 8:15 PM and he was taken to the Medical University of South Carolina, where he later died. The Charleston County Coroner ruled the death a homicide.

Authorities arrested 22-year-old Taylin Greene near the scene and charged him with Gabe’s murder; police did not publicly release a motive as the investigation continued. Two days after the killing, Gabe’s father, Corey Gabe Sr., was mistakenly arrested while walking with family; charges were later dropped and Gabe Sr., his wife, and his daughter filed lawsuits against the city over the incident.
