Antwan Maurice Sams, 33, was killed in the early morning hours of June 4, 2016, in Walterboro, South Carolina. A patrol officer heard six or seven gunshots near the McDonald’s on Sniders Highway around 3:08 a.m.; several people fled the drive-through area as officers approached. Sams was found near the drive-through with multiple gunshot wounds. First responders performed CPR and advanced life support before he was taken to Colleton Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. A second victim was found with a single gunshot wound at the Quality Inn parking lot and hospitalized.

A silver SUV was reported leaving the scene and crashed during a subsequent police pursuit; three occupants fled on foot. Two Walterboro men, 18-year-old Lymik Pierce and 23-year-old Jylin Daquan Ford, were arrested on charges unrelated to homicide at the time—failure to stop for a blue light and obstruction of justice for Pierce, and obstruction of justice for Ford—but authorities said it was unclear whether they were connected to the shooting. Sams was a father and local resident; the death was ruled a homicide from multiple gunshot injuries. The investigation is open and unsolved as of the most recent update.

Did anyone in Walterboro see or hear anything that morning that might help advance this case?
