Jhisere Ahmaad Robinson, a 15-year-old male, was fatally shot on Sunday, May 22, 2022, in Newberry, South Carolina, as part of a series of violent events that claimed the lives of four teenagers in total that day. The day of violence began shortly after midnight when 16-year-old Mykain Davis was shot and killed on Wise Street. Hours later, in a connected incident, Jhisere, along with 18-year-old Jahquindon Toland and 19-year-old Sonterrious Davis, were found shot to death on the nearby Eleanor
Street.
At the time of the incidents, law enforcement officials stated that all four victims were acquainted with one another. The shootings prompted an extensive investigation by the Newberry Police Department. In the immediate aftermath, authorities had not identified any suspects or determined a motive for the shootings. As a safety measure following the violence, Newberry High School, where Jhisere was a tenth-grade student, transitioned to virtual learning for a day.
In September 2022, law enforcement officials announced a significant development in the investigation, with the arrest of three individuals in connection with the death of Mykain Davis. A 22-year-old and two 17-year-olds were charged with his murder. However, based on the available online sources, it is not specified whether these individuals have also been charged in the deaths of Jhisere Ahmaad Robinson, Jahquindon Toland, and Sonterrious Davis. The investigation into the shootings remains ongoing.
