Investigation Reveals Tense Scenario
A fourth person was discovered, shot but alive, able to escape the bloodshed. Before the enforcement agencies arrived, this person had been taken to a hospital in Simpsonville by a private vehicle. With the fourth personโs condition too critical to make any statement, the deputies had to rely on witnesses for their investigation.
They were successful in piecing together the tense scenario that had unfolded at the hunting ground. It seemed like what started as a dispute over who had the right to hunt in that area had escalated quickly, ending in a shootout. This alleged argument had spiraled out of control, leading to this monstrous incident.
Questions Yet Unanswered
With the investigation still active, no solid leads or arrests have been made yet. The sheriffโs office added that more information would be released after they consult with the solicitorโs office, assuring the residents that they are committed to seek justice for the victims.
