Deangelo Markeith Kirk, a 25-year-old Black man, was fatally shot on the afternoon of May 21, 2016, in Lancaster, South Carolina. The shooting occurred shortly before 3 p.m. at the Palmetto Place Apartments. Kirk was taken first to Springs Memorial Hospital and then airlifted to Carolinas Medical Center, where he died; the death was ruled a homicide.

Lancaster Police identified 28-year-old Rashad Demon Johnson as the primary suspect in the days after the shooting and obtained warrants charging him with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. At that time Johnson was described as a convicted felon who was out on bond for other alleged crimes and was considered armed and dangerous.

Kirk’s death was the second in his family from gun violence within six months; his older brother Delvelceo Kirk had been shot and killed the previous November. Does anyone have information about the shooting or about Deangelo’s life in Lancaster that could help investigators or the family?
