In the early morning hours of December 26, 2009, 19-year-old Christopher Yarbrough was shot and killed in the parking lot of Club Peppers in Baxley, Georgia. The attack occurred about 2:00 a.m. during what had been a busy night at the Appling County nightclub; estimates put the crowd at over a thousand people. Two other people were also wounded by gunfire that night and survived.

Investigators say a fight may have sparked the shooting, but despite the large number of potential witnesses the case remains unsolved. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation is asking the public for information, and no arrests have been announced. If anyone was at Club Peppers that night or has information about who fired the shots, please get in touch with the GBI.
