Deondre Ontonio Brown, 20, was shot and killed outside his grandmother’s home on Martin Luther King Drive in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, on the evening of December 11, 2019. That alleged robbery was not reported to police.

Later that evening Brown was sitting in a car with his aunt and uncle when a phone call led to an argument. He walked toward the side of the house and was lured out by a 15-year-old, Chandler Sports, while Zasimovitch waited in nearby woods with a .22 caliber rifle. Zasimovitch opened fire as Brown moved away from the car; Brown ran back toward his relatives but collapsed and died in the backyard. The house was also struck by bullets.

Officers questioned the three teenagers at school the next morning and arrests followed. Zasimovitch was charged with murder and armed robbery and admitted to shooting Brown; Barnes faced charges including strong-armed robbery and drug possession; the juvenile accomplice’s charges were not detailed. Brown’s family said the loss in their grandmother’s backyard remains a lasting pain.

If anyone knew Deondre, his movements that evening, or saw suspicious activity near Martin Luther King Drive on December 11, 2019, please share what is known.
