 Edgefield man shot Saturday night web posted August 16, 2009 EDGEFIELD – A late night shooting has left one man injured and police searching for two suspects. The shooting took place just before 11 pm at the Edgewood Apartments on W. A. Reel Drive in Edgefield. One man was confirmed being shot and was being treated at the Edgefield County Hospital after being taken to the Emergency Room by friends. Though details are sketchy at this time, the two men are said to have approached the victim from behind when the shooting took place. Edgefield Police arrived on the scene along with Sheriff’s Deputies shortly after the report. Johnston Police and the South Carolina Highway Patrol also responded to help set up a perimeter in an effort to find the two men fleeing the scene on foot. The Edgefield County Sheriff’s Bloodhound Team was also responding to the scene. The two suspects were described only as black males, one having dreadlocks wearing a white T-shirt weighing approximately 250 pounds and the second suspect was only described as wearing a white T-shirt. Both men were said to be carrying backpacks. The scene of the shooting was roped off as investigators began collecting evidence and preserving footprints and a possible scent trail for the bloodhounds to track. There were no updates on the victim’s condition or where he was stuck during the shooting. It was unknown if he was continuing to be treated at the Edgefield County Hospital or if he was transported to MCG in Augusta. A shooting Thursday in Johnston also identified the suspects as being black males wearing white T-shirts. Police are not making any connections between the two shootings.
