Brandon Shaffer Jr., a 20-year-old Black man from Greenwood, Mississippi, was killed in a targeted drive-by shooting on the evening of May 31, 2023. He was in front of Scott Petroleum at the intersection of U.S. 82 and Mississippi 7 when gunfire erupted. The attack also killed 45-year-old Dewanna McClee and critically wounded her 24-year-old son, Tamarkus Martin.

The shooting shocked Greenwood and left families mourning. Police described the attack as targeted, and investigators later arrested two men in connection with the case: 24-year-old Christopher McNelson and 26-year-old Cordarius Arterberry. Both were charged in the murders and, as of late 2024, remained in custody awaiting trial after legal delays.

Anyone who saw activity near Scott Petroleum on May 31, 2023, or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
