On the evening of May 21, 2025, deputies responded to the 2500 block of Lumpkin Road in Augusta, Georgia, and found 26-year-old Jaquavious Watkins, a Black/African American man, suffering from at least one gunshot wound. He was taken to Wellstar MCG Health but was pronounced dead later that evening.

Investigators identified 18-year-old Tayshuan Antonio Goodwin as a suspect. Warrants were issued charging Goodwin with murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime; a description was released and he was considered armed and dangerous. Goodwin’s whereabouts were unknown for a time, and the public was asked to help locate him.

On June 18, 2025, Tayshuan Goodwin was booked into the Richmond County Jail on the charges tied to Watkins’s death. Does anyone on Lumpkin Road remember seeing or hearing anything on the evening of May 21 that could help clarify what happened?
