Raven Fulton was a 21-year-old Black male who left Warrenton on August 31, 2021, and went to Castle Pines Mobile Home Park on Mike Padgett Highway in Augusta, where an evening confrontation turned deadly. Reports say he was shot at about 7:33 p.m. at the trailer park, was found with at least one gunshot wound and was rushed to Augusta University Medical Center. He was pronounced dead at 12:04 a.m. the following morning.

Early reporting and booking records identified a 38-year-old man named Peter Berkery as the person arrested at the scene. Coverage at the time said he was charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a crime; booking records also listed aggravated assault among the charges. The shooting, the rapid arrest, and Fulton’s death the same night left the case sharply defined, but accessible reports do not clearly show a later trial outcome, plea, or conviction.
