Maliki Quashaun Byrd was 16 when he was killed on January 20, 2020, in Wadesboro, North Carolina. A student and football player at Anson High School, Maliki and his 15-year-old cousin Chrishaun Hough were shot after an altercation during a basketball game at Harvest Ministries. Both were found on the ground when police arrived; Maliki was pronounced dead at the scene and Chrishaun was taken to hospital with injuries that could potentially cause paralysis.

According to investigators, Maliki and Chrishaun left the game and were followed by another vehicle. After they drove off the property, occupants of that vehicle opened fire. Motive remains unclear and it is not known whether the shooters had gang ties; Maliki’s coach, Ralph Jackson, said Maliki was not involved in any gang. Suspects remain at large and a $5,000 reward has been offered for information leading to arrest and conviction.

Did anyone at the Harvest Ministries game or nearby see the vehicle that followed them or the people inside it?
