Jamie Bernard Burton Jr., 25, was shot and killed in the early hours of Saturday, June 10, 2023, in Savannah, Georgia. Chatham County officers responded to reports of shots fired at the Westlake Apartments around 6 a.m. and found Burton in a building breezeway; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators said they did not believe the shooting was random and sought the public’s help a few days later to locate three people they wanted to question: 24-year-old Shaddrick Lacount, 24-year-old Brandon Stark, and 64-year-old Sherry Myers. Police noted Lacount and Myers had active warrants unrelated to the homicide.

On July 5, 2023, authorities arrested Shaddrick Marquis Lacount, 24, Dwayne Singleton Jr., 23, and Montrez Hopson, 21; all three were charged with Burton’s murder and booked into the Chatham County Detention Center. A grand jury returned murder indictments against the three on September 20, 2023, and court proceedings were pending as of September 2023.

If anyone has information about Burton, his movements that morning, or the people named in the investigation, please come forward.
