Unusual shooting, arrests in North Charleston stir questions
Javascript is required to view this map.
Thomas Scott Yelton was forced from a car at 4600 block of Oakwood Avenue and shot multiple times around 2:45 a.m. Saturday. He later died and three are in custody.
Murder charges have not yet been filed, and police are still looking for a motive.
There’s a couple of odd twists in this case, and there are several write-ups out there, in this case I recommend Live 5 News.
