On the morning of February 12, 2023, a violent argument near the B&M Mart on the 1900 block of Reynolds Avenue in North Charleston, South Carolina, ended with 27-year-old Black woman Kakisha Favor being shot just before noon. Bystanders, including someone who identified as a doctor, attempted first aid before Favor was rushed to the Medical University of South Carolina; the Charleston County Coroner later confirmed she died at 11:26 a.m.

Witnesses told police the shooter fled the scene on a bicycle. Detectives from the North Charleston Police Department, working with the FBI Gang Task Force, identified 19-year-old Terell Travon Washington-Matthew as the suspect and arrested him on February 15, 2023. He was charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. The 9th Circuit Solicitor’s Office prosecuted the case; it was reported closed as of March 2024 after a plea and sentencing.
