Terrell McDonald, 29, was shot once in the chest and killed in Canton, Mississippi. The shooting happened around 8:30 a.m. on April 26, 2022, at the South Canal Street Apartments, where Canton police officers responded to a report of shots fired and found McDonald at the scene.

Police arrested 26-year-old Xavier Barnes shortly after the shooting and charged him with murder. Authorities did not immediately disclose a motive as the investigation continued. McDonald’s death also prompted questions about security at the South Canal Street Apartments; legal representatives began exploring whether negligent security at the complex contributed to the killing and whether civil claims on behalf of McDonald’s family were appropriate.

If anyone knew Terrell, witnessed the incident, or has information about the security conditions at the apartment complex, please share what is known.
