Travis Smith, 28, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of September 29, 2012, at the Ridgeview Manor Apartments in North Augusta, South Carolina. Friends said he had been spending time at the complex and seemed more on edge than usual that night. At about 2:47 a.m. he was in a breezeway, talking with a woman he had just met, when two or three hooded men approached. The woman ran inside; a single gunshot followed. Smith, who was unarmed, ran into an apartment and collapsed from an upper-torso wound. Responders found him unresponsive and he died at the scene.

No motive has been established and reports say there was no prior confrontation. No arrests have been made and the identities of the hooded men remain unknown. Family members, including his sister, have organized rallies, distributed flyers and placed a billboard seeking tips as the case remains open.

Did anyone in North Augusta see Travis that night or know the men described by witnesses?
