Shortly before 1 a.m. on July 15, 2026, North Charleston officers responded to the 7300 block of Stall Road after gunfire was reported at Spivey’s Mobile Home Park. A man found just outside the park had been shot multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene. The Charleston County Coroner identified him as 28-year-old Luis Baca-Cruz, of Honduran descent.

Witnesses heard a woman screaming near a wooden fence opening and saw a man in a blue shirt running near Stall Road and back into the trailer park just before the shooting; the shirt color matched what Baca-Cruz was reported to be wearing. Within hours, 18-year-old Miguel Ortiz Boyd surrendered and was charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime; he was booked into the Al Cannon Detention Center pending a bond hearing. The motive and the relationship, if any, between Baca-Cruz and Boyd have not been released.

Does anyone who knew Luis or who was near Stall Road that night have information that could clarify what happened?
