According to the Aiken Standard, gunfire erupted “at the Ridgeview apartments…on Bradleyville Road around 1:00 p.m.” Tragically, Mr. Bostic succumbed to fatal injuries at the scene. Police have allegedly since made an arrest in connection with the shooting, per WFXG reports.

Our Legal Take

Apartment residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • How did the gunman gain entry to the complex? What security measures, such as gated-entry, surveillance cameras and security patrols, were in place at the time of the shooting to protect residents and deter crime?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the apartment complex owner failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Daquan Bostic may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his wrongful death.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
