Columbia, SC – Gunfire rang out at an apartment complex Saturday morning, May 31, 2025, leaving one man dead.

As reported by WLTX.com, “[t]he sheriff’s department said deputies were called to 1050 Southern Drive around 6 a.m. on May 31, where they found a Black male victim in one of the apartments with gunshot wounds to the back and side.”

According to the report, “[t]he victim has been identified as Damajne Hicks, 25, of Columbia.”

WACH.com is reporting, “[t]he complex is a privately owned apartment for students only.”

According to WIStv.com, “[t]he recent shooting is just one out of several other violent incidents students say they’ve continued to endure…One student showed WIS eight different emails management sent to residents, warning them about various violent situations. WIS also obtained Richland County Sheriff Department records that show the extent of violence. Out of 186 calls for service to the apartment complex this year, 18 of those calls involved a gun or a weapon.”

The investigation is ongoing.

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Apartment complex residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises they are visiting. The level of security provided at the property is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented.

The following list of questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

  • Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?
  • Was the property owner or manager aware of any suspicious activity prior to the shooting?
  • Were any security personnel at the property?
  • Were security measures added after any prior incidents?
  • What protocol was in place to deter crime and protect the victims at the time of the shooting? 
  • Have authorities been to the property on prior occasions?

Property owners are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises.  Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the property owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its visitors, the family of Damajne Hicks may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss.

The Murray Law Firm has extensive and successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, and suggests that an immediate, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed.  The complexities of pursuing a negligent security case are well understood by the legal team at The Murray Law Firm, and it is imperative that the family of Damajne Hicks retain a capable law firm who will work without delay to protect their interests.

Rodney Gardner Houston Apartment Fire: Legal Claims Available to Family?

Houston, TX NEWS – A senior living apartment complex fire late Wednesday night, May 28, 2025, tragically claimed one life.

As reported by HoustonPublicMedia.org, “[t]he Houston Fire Department was dispatched to the [senior living apartment complex] 6 Burress St., just before 11 p.m. after reports of a fire. Crews called for a second alarm after arriving to a heavy fire in one of the buildings in the complex.”

According to the report, “[o]ne person was found dead during a secondary search of the burning building. Three others were transported to a hospital — including one person who sustained injuries after jumping from a window to escape the fire.”

KHOU.com is reporting, “[f]amily members identified the victim as 74-year-old Rodney Gardner.”

Fire inspectors continue to investigate the cause of the fire.

Our Legal Take

Top-100-Trial-Lawyers

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

As authorities continue their investigation, premises liability attorneys with The Murray Law Firm question whether a lack of security or fire safety measures at the complex may have contributed to this incident.

  • What fire safety measures, such as working smoke detectors, fire sprinklers and emergency exits, were in place and working at the time of the fire?
  • When was the last fire inspection performed on the property?
  • Were any safety measures added after any previous inspections?
  • Was the property owner aware of any inadequate fire safety measures present prior to the fire?

As details of this fire continue to emerge, The Murray Law Firm suggests that it is possible that the apartment complex failed to undertake proper safety measures to protect those residents and guests legally on the premises. Under certain State law, the owner and management company of an apartment complex have a duty to protect residents and to keep the premises safe. If the owner or manager fails in this duty, they may be held civilly liable for any injuries or wrongful deaths that occur as a consequence.  Should the apartment complex be found at fault, the family of Rodney Gardner may elect to hold the owner and management company civilly liable for their loss and suffering.

As insurance companies and unscrupulous property owners are often concerned with limiting their financial exposure in these incidents, it is crucial that the family of Rodney Gardner and any injured victims retain an experienced premises liability firm as soon as possible to ensure all evidence, such as a faulty fire alarm or a poor evacuation plan, is preserved and the family’s best interests are protected. The Murray Law Firm has extensive experience in premises liability and apartment negligence cases, such as this, and we offer our legal expertise, if needed.

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Employees and vendors have a right to safety and security while on the premises of a work site. The safety measures provided at the site or the malfunction of equipment may be at issue in this matter, and may be important in evaluating whether this tragic incident may have been prevented.

List of factual and legal inquires:

  1. What safety rules were in place to prevent this type of accident?
  2. Did any such safety features fail?
  3. Was the tragedy a result of a catastrophic equipment malfunction?
  4. What was the condition of any machinery/equipment involved?
  5. Was the company or property owner aware of the potential safety risks to employees?
  6. If equipment or machinery were involved in the incident, were any attempts made to service, recall or replace any such machinery or equipment prior to the incident?

Under workers’ compensation laws, our legal team suggests that the family of the victim will most likely be entitled to significant compensation as a result of this accident. While they should be eligible for benefits under workers compensation laws, they may also hold a substantial third-party negligence claim. Based on its history and experience in representing families in workers compensation and negligence claims, The Murray Law Firm suggests that the family of the victim should retain legal counsel without delay so as to ensure that all evidence connected to the incident is preserved.

Camas, WA –A motor vehicle accident involving a wrong-way driver late Monday night, May 26, 2025, tragically claimed one life and injured two others.

As reported by KPTV.com, “[t]he crash occurred just before 11 p.m. on SR 14 near Exit 14 in Camas. Troopers say a Mercedes was traveling in the wrong direction when it collided head-on with another vehicle, killing one person and seriously injuring two others.”

According to the report, “[t]he victim killed in the crash was identified as Michael C. O’Brien, 18, of Portland. He was a senior at Roosevelt High School. In a letter to the school community Tuesday, Roosevelt High School Principal…confirmed that the two other victims…, both seniors—were hospitalized and in stable condition.”

KOIN.com is reporting, “[o]fficers say [the wrong-way driver] was arrested on suspicion of DUI. Washington State Police said [the driver] had likely been driving the wrong way for a while, because they got 10 calls that someone was driving the wrong way on SR14 as far back as Milepost 0 near Vancouver.”

The investigation is ongoing.

Employees and vendors have a right to safety and security while on the premises of a construction site. The safety measures provided at the site or the malfunction of equipment may be at issue in this matter, and may be important in evaluating whether this tragic incident may have been prevented.

List of factual and legal inquires:

  1. What safety rules were in place to prevent this type of accident?
  2. Did any such safety features fail?
  3. Was the tragedy a result of a catastrophic equipment malfunction?
  4. What was the condition of any machinery/equipment involved?
  5. Was the company or property owner aware of the potential safety risks to employees?
  6. If equipment or machinery were involved in the incident, were any attempts made to service, recall or replace any such machinery or equipment prior to the incident?

Under workers’ compensation laws, our legal team suggests that the family of the victim will most likely be entitled to significant compensation as a result of this accident. While they should be eligible for benefits under workers compensation laws, they may also hold a substantial third-party negligence claim. Based on its history and experience in representing families in workers compensation and negligence claims, The Murray Law Firm suggests that the family should retain legal counsel without delay so as to ensure that all evidence connected to the incident is preserved.
