Accident – Death – Obituary News : Fatal Shooting in Kershaw County Leaves One Dead and Three Injured

KERSHAW COUNTY, S.C. (WIS) – Tragedy struck in Kershaw County on Monday, as one person was killed and three others were injured in a shooting incident. The victim has been identified as 21-year-old Devin Simon from Lamar, according to Kershaw County Corner David West.

The incident unfolded in the early hours of the morning when a dark burgundy 2018 Nissan Armada was spotted speeding near the intersection of Broad Street and DeKalb Street in Camden. A Camden Police officer attempted to pull over the vehicle, but the driver refused to stop, leading the officer on a high-speed chase. The pursuit ultimately ended at the Kershaw Health Emergency Room, where the driver was apprehended.

Upon investigation, it was discovered that there were a total of six individuals inside the vehicle. Two of them managed to flee the scene, while one was taken into custody. Shockingly, the remaining three occupants had all sustained gunshot wounds.

In a separate but possibly related incident, a woman reported being shot in the head while driving a silver 2016 Chevrolet Impala. The distressing call to 911 came from the side of I-20 West near the 104-mile marker. Thankfully, the woman’s injuries were deemed non-life-threatening, and she was treated at the hospital before being released.

Both vehicles involved in the shootings, the Nissan Armada and the Chevrolet Impala, displayed multiple bullet holes, indicating a violent confrontation had taken place. Initially, law enforcement struggled to pinpoint the exact location of the shootings. However, later updates from the Kershaw County Sheriff’s Office revealed that the incidents likely occurred on I-20 East between the 88 and 89-mile markers.

According to investigators, the victims claimed that they were returning from a gentlemen’s club on Broad River Road in Columbia when the shootings occurred. They believe the incidents took place somewhere on I-20 between Broad River Road in Columbia (exit 65) and Jamestown Road in Bishopville (exit 108).

The Kershaw County Sheriff’s Office, in conjunction with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED), is currently conducting a thorough investigation into these disturbing incidents. They are urging anyone with information to come forward and assist in their inquiries. Individuals can contact the Kershaw County Sheriff’s Office at 803-425-1512 or 803-424-4000.
