Jordan Dove, 34, of Lugoff, died after triggering a booby-trapped shotgun at a vacant house on Chickadee Circle in Saint Matthews on February 24, 2025. He had gone to check on the family member’s property that evening with his daughter.

Calhoun County deputies found the front door barricaded and a shotgun rigged to the back door to fire on entry; they safely dismantled the device. Investigators say the focus of the probe shifted to the homeowner, Dove’s uncle Alfonzo Brown, who was in custody in Maryland on unrelated attempted murder charges at the time. Authorities announced Brown would face charges in connection with Dove’s death and say they believe the trap was intended to target law enforcement who might come to the residence.
