Jamell George was 26 and a father and business owner when he was shot and killed in Columbia, South Carolina, on July 2, 2016, hours before his 27th birthday. He was sitting in his truck outside a residence on Pinedale Drive when two men approached, a verbal altercation ensued, and the men ordered him out of the vehicle at gunpoint. George tried to flee and was shot multiple times; he was taken to a hospital and died of a gunshot wound to the upper body. Investigators say his phone was stolen and never recovered and that he was believed to have been a random target.

The Richland County Sheriff’s Department arrested one man in the case: 27-year-old Keith Thomas was taken into custody on August 3, 2016, and charged with murder and possession of a firearm during a violent crime after a tipster who had seen a sketch identified him. A second suspect remains at large; authorities released a composite sketch and think he may have lived in or around the Colony Apartments off West Beltline Boulevard. The family has appealed for anyone with information to come forward.

Does anyone have tips or memories that could help identify the second man involved?
