Jennifer Ann Noe Robinson, a 33-year-old White female and mother of four from Lockhart, South Carolina, was killed in a drive-by shooting in Rock Hill on March 25, 2023. The incident happened around 12:10 a.m. on Friedheim Road when someone in a vehicle fired multiple shots, one of which fatally wounded her. She was transported to Piedmont Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead.
Her family described her as a loving, caring person and an innocent bystander in the tragic event.
Witnesses reported seeing a dark-colored sedan fleeing the scene immediately after the shooting. An investigation by the Rock Hill Police Department, with help from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, pointed to 25-year-old Rock Hill resident Brenden Demarkus Johnson as the primary suspect. Johnson was arrested in Charlotte on April 19, 2023, and charged with murder.
Following his arrest, Johnson was held at the Mecklenburg County Detention Center as he awaited extradition to South Carolina to face the charges against him. Funeral services for Jennifer Robinson were held in early April 2023, and she was laid to rest at Lakeview Memorial Garden in York, South Carolina.
