Kendal Ray, a 27-year-old Black man from Loris, South Carolina, was fatally shot after stepping outside a residence on Barts Road on the evening of January 6, 2018. A single gunshot to the head followed; Ray was taken to Grand Strand Medical Center and died on January 7, 2018. The Horry County Coroner’s Office ruled the death a homicide, citing the single gunshot wound as the cause.

Investigators quickly focused on Quotase Jenrette of Clarendon, North Carolina, as the primary suspect and secured a warrant charging him with murder. Jenrette was later located and taken into custody by the Columbus County Sheriff’s Office. Is there anyone who knew Kendal or was in the area that night who can add details about what happened on Barts Road?
