JayQuan Milik Lamar Brown was 16 when he was fatally shot in North Charleston, South Carolina, on Saturday, May 25, 2024. A sophomore at St. John’s High School, he participated in JROTC and had expressed aspirations of serving his country; friends remembered him as smart, cool, and laid back.

On the day he was killed, JayQuan was visiting cousins to help an elderly person move. The group walked to a nearby gas station when a car approached and an occupant opened fire. JayQuan was struck and died of his injuries; another juvenile with him was wounded. His mother, Tedra Brown, publicly pleaded with the community to end gun violence, and the North Charleston Police Department is investigating.

What information can anyone share about JayQuan’s movements that day or about the vehicle and occupants seen near the gas station?
