On the night of August 18, 2014, Bryant Hud Kinsey, a 33-year-old Black man, was shot inside an apartment at the S&K Apartments complex on Carolina Avenue in Goose Creek, South Carolina. Officers responding to reports of shots fired found Kinsey gravely wounded; he was taken for medical treatment but later died, and the incident was treated as a homicide.

Investigators canvassed the complex, interviewed numerous people who had been in or near the building and followed up on tips. A passing witness reported seeing a white, four-door Buick or Cadillac speed away from the scene. Detectives say they identified potential suspects, but the investigation has been hindered by a persistent reluctance among witnesses to cooperate, and the case remains unsolved on the city’s cold-case list.

Kinsey’s homegoing service was held at a church in Ladson later that month, and online remembrances recount family grief and condolences. If anyone knew Bryant, saw the vehicle leaving the complex that night, or has information that could help, please contact the Goose Creek Police Department.
