A South Carolina man is shot and killed during a robbery attempt In the quiet town of Anderson, South Carolina, the life of 63-year-old Kenneth Gray Coe, a white male, was brought to a tragic and abrupt end in June of 2002. On the evening of June 9th, an unknown assailant fired a single gunshot through the front window of Coe's home, striking him in the chest. He was rushed to the Anderson Area Medical Center for treatment but succumbed to his injuries a few days later.
His death was officially ruled a homicide.
The Anderson County Sheriff's Office launched an investigation into the fatal shooting, but the case quickly grew cold. Despite appeals to the public for any information that might lead to a breakthrough, no suspects have ever been publicly identified and no arrests have been made in the years following the incident. The motive for the shooting remains unclear, and the case is now considered one of Anderson County's unsolved cold cases. Authorities continue to encourage anyone with information to come forward, hopeful that a crucial tip might one day bring justice for Kenneth Coe and his family.
