A Tragedy That Cut Laughter Short

Baltimore-born comedian Reginald “Reggie” Carroll, age 52, passed away on August 20, 2025, after being shot in Southaven, Mississippi. Authorities responded to the scene on Burton Lane and transported him to a hospital in Memphis, where he later succumbed to his injuries (The Guardian). The Southaven Police Department labeled the incident as “isolated,” and a suspect—38-year-old Tranell Marquise Williams—has been arrested and charged with murder (The Guardian).

A Career Built on Knockouts—of Laughter

Reggie’s comedic style was as sharp as it was warm, earning him the moniker Knockout King of Comedy. He made multiple appearances on beloved programs such as Showtime at the Apollo, The Parkers, and the 2023 stand-up special Knockout Kings of Comedy (The Guardian). A national touring act and a frequent collaborator with entertainers like Mo’Nique and Katt Williams, he brought humor, heart, and real talk to stages across the country (EW.com).
