On the night of November 18, 2016, 16-year-old Markevious K. Jackson of Greenwood, South Carolina, was found on Meadow Street with a single gunshot wound. Emergency responders transported him to Self Regional Healthcare, where he died. Markevious, known to friends and family as Boona, was a student at Greenwood High School; his death prompted mourning across the community and the school.

Investigators treated the case as a homicide at first but later concluded the fatal discharge may have been accidental. Police say another teenager was handling a firearm at the scene when a shot struck Jackson. On December 1, 2016, authorities detained a 15-year-old boy and charged him with involuntary manslaughter and a weapons violation; the juvenile’s name was not released.

Does anyone who knew Markevious or who was in the Meadow Street area that night have information that could shed more light on what happened?
