Joshua J. Jackson, 34, was killed in a drive-by shooting on Shakespeare Road in Columbia in the early hours of September 11, 2023. Jackson and 40-year-old Eddie A. Boyd of Sumter were attending a party when both were struck by gunfire; deputies found them lying unresponsive on the sidewalk around 1 a.m. EMS responded and Jackson was pronounced dead at the scene. Boyd was transported to a hospital and later died of his wounds.

The Richland County Sheriff’s Department initially had no arrests and appealed for public tips while investigators searched for a motive. In October 2023 authorities identified 18-year-old Ty’Quan McClinton as a suspect; he was arrested on November 9, 2023, and charged with two counts of murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. Officials have mentioned possible co-defendants but have not released additional details.

Does anyone who was in that area on September 11, 2023, or who has information about the party or vehicle involved, have details to share with investigators?
