In the early morning hours of January 13, 2025, 21-year-old Keontae Grinder of Liberty County was fatally shot in the parking lot of an Amazon fulfillment center on Triple B Trail in Pooler, Georgia. Pooler Police found Grinder with at least one gunshot wound; he was taken to a nearby hospital and later died. The incident prompted the facility to suspend operations for the day and offer grief counseling to employees.

Authorities described the shooting as an isolated, targeted attack and said there was no ongoing threat, but investigators had not publicly identified a suspect. By late January 2025 no arrests had been announced and motive remained unclear, though some co-workers suggested a possible personal conflict. Grinder was remembered by family as a beloved son, one of nine siblings, and a father to a two-year-old daughter; his family said they first learned of his death via social media before official notification.

Anyone who worked at the facility or who was in the Triple B Trail area that morning and has information is asked to contact investigators.
