Carl Francis Burden, 35, was shot and killed in the early hours of a Wednesday in March 2016 while seated in the passenger seat of a vehicle in Blacksburg, South Carolina. His wife was driving at the time. Investigators say the shooting was not random; all involved were known to one another.

The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office identified two suspects and arrested Robert Justin Horde and Joseph Vance Smith. Authorities recovered a gun in Horde’s vehicle that was believed to be the murder weapon. Officials said the dispute that led to the fatal shooting stemmed from an argument over a tattoo kit and that those involved were known to use drugs. A woman named Teresa Elaine Roberts, reportedly pregnant at the time, was charged with neglect related to substance use in connection with the incident.

Does anyone have information about the March 2016 shooting or knew Carl Burden?
