On the afternoon of December 30, 2022, a single gunshot on Treadwell Street in Orangeburg, South Carolina, left 29-year-old Ryan Daniel Brice Jones dead in the road. The shooting occurred at about 3:20 p.m. after a vehicle pulled up to Jones’s home. Jones went to the passenger side, spoke to someone inside, and was struck by the fatal shot; the car then fled toward Amelia Street.

First responders found Jones with a faint pulse and began chest compressions, continuing until EMS arrived, but he was pronounced dead at the scene. His mother, Lalisa Jones, arrived while CPR was being performed. In the days after the killing, investigators identified Cristyon Diddy Labaron Evans, 36, as a suspect. In May 2024, Evans was taken into custody and charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime; he has prior convictions including domestic violence, assault, and drug charges. Lalisa Jones spoke in court about her son’s role as a caring father and his loving nature.

Does anyone who knew Ryan or who was in the Treadwell Street area that afternoon have information to share?
