In the early morning hours of June 30, 2015, Gerrod Theopolus Metoyer, a 29-year-old male, was found deceased at the intersection of Ashley Phosphate Road and Dorchester Manor Boulevard in North Charleston, South Carolina. The cause of his death was a gunshot wound to the head.
The investigation into his death led to the arrests of three individuals in July of that year.
The suspects were identified as 18-year-old Marques Lamont Butler, 16-year-old Dashawn Khalil Ford, and a 14-year-old male, Rashid Fulmore. Due to his age, Fulmore was initially charged as a juvenile, while Ford was charged as an adult. All three were charged with armed robbery and murder in connection with Metoyer's death.
