The community of Little River is heartbroken to announce the tragic passing of 29-year-old Bradley Gore II, who was killed in a single-vehicle accident early Sunday morning, August 24, 2025. Bradley’s sudden and untimely death has left his family, friends, and neighbors in profound grief as they come to terms with the loss of a beloved individual.

According to the South Carolina Highway Patrol, the accident occurred at approximately 5:04 a.m. on Secondary 57 near Frank Gore Road. Bradley was driving his 2015 GMC Sierra southbound when, for reasons still under investigation, the vehicle veered off the right side of the roadway. The truck struck several objects in its path, including a tree, culvert, and mailbox, before overturning and ultimately coming to rest in a ditch.

Despite the swift response of emergency crews, Bradley was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries sustained in the crash. He was the sole occupant of the vehicle, and no other individuals or vehicles were involved in the incident.

Investigators continue to review the circumstances surrounding the crash, including possible contributing factors such as road conditions, speed, or impairment. The South Carolina Highway Patrol is urging anyone with information to come forward to assist in their ongoing investigation.

Bradley Gore II was a vibrant and caring individual whose loss has left an irreplaceable void in the lives of those who knew him. His family, friends, and community will remember him for his kindness, his spirit, and the joy he brought to everyone around him.

As authorities continue their investigation, this tragedy serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety, particularly during the early hours when visibility is low, and fatigue can be a factor. The incident has raised awareness about the risks faced by drivers, especially in rural areas where roads may be narrow and poorly lit.

Bradley’s family requests privacy as they mourn this devastating loss, and they appreciate the outpouring of support from their community during this difficult time. As the investigation unfolds, they hold onto the cherished memories of Bradley and seek solace in knowing he will never be forgotten.

May Bradley Gore II rest in peace, and may his memory inspire others to drive with caution and care.
