Man wanted in South Carolina charter boat shooting arrested in Illinois, police say
LAKE COUNTY, Ill. – A 19-year-old man wanted in connection with a Memorial Day weekend shooting on a charter boat in South Carolina that left 11 people injured was arrested Thursday in Lake County, Illinois.
What we know:
Shawon Shamarion Williams was taken into custody in connection with the May 25 shooting in Little River, South Carolina, according to the Horry County Police Department.
Pictured is Shawon Shamarion Williams, 19.
Authorities said the shooting occurred during a private gathering aboard a charter boat on Watson Avenue. The vessel was carrying 124 people—120 passengers and four crew members—at the time.
Officers initially responded to a report of an injury, but upon arrival, discovered that a shooting had taken place.
Eleven people were injured; three were hospitalized but have since been released.
Arrest Made :
Williams is charged with fugitive from justice, but is also expected to be charged with multiple counts of attempted murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime.
He will be extradited to Horry County, police said.
Investigators said additional arrests are possible as the case remains under investigation. No further details have been released.
Just a day after four-star PA wide receiver Khalil Taylor spurned Penn State for Nebraska, the Nittany Lions got more fantastic news as four-star South Carolina running back Aiden Gibson announced his decommitment from Penn State and flipped to Rutgers with the intention to enroll for the 2026 season.
Not really much to say here other than this sucks and there have just been too many losses for Penn State this cycle. No one is going to bat 1.000, but after a strong March and April that had the Nittany Lions positioned to sign a Top 15 class, they have managed to lose Jamir Dean to Georgia, Zach Gleason to West Virginia, DeShawn Hall to Auburn, Khalil Taylor to Nebraska, and now Aiden Gibson to Rutgers. The class is now ranked No. 22, behind the likes of Cal, Kentucky, and…Virginia Tech.
Gross. The 2028 class needs to be better.
