In the small town of Loris, South Carolina, the Thanksgiving weekend of 2021 was shattered by violence that claimed the life of 30-year-old Colloyd Jackson. A Black male, Jackson was shot on Redenbo Drive on Saturday, November 27, 2021. He was rushed to a local hospital, but the gunshot wound proved to be fatal, and he was pronounced dead by the Horry County Deputy Coroner.
The incident was one of several violent acts that disturbed the holiday weekend in the area, prompting an
investigation by the Horry County Police Department. Despite their ongoing efforts, authorities have not publicly identified any suspects in connection with Jackson's death, and no arrests have been made. The circumstances that led to the shooting and any potential motives remain undisclosed by law enforcement.
The community was left to mourn the loss of the young man, known to some as 'Codey.' His family held a public viewing and a graveside service in early December of that year. As the investigation continues, those who knew Colloyd Jackson await answers and hope for justice to be served in his unsolved case.
