On a late Wednesday evening in June 2019, 18-year-old Amber Horton was shot while a passenger in a friend’s car on Highway 151 south of Pageland, South Carolina. Around 11 p.m., a dark blue Dodge Charger began following them and shots were fired from the Charger into the vehicle. Horton was struck once in the upper torso, taken to a hospital in Monroe, and died of her injuries.

Witnesses at the scene identified the Charger driver as 19-year-old Ryu Deshawn Hough. Law enforcement searched for Hough as a suspect described as armed and dangerous; he turned himself in to the Chesterfield County Sheriff’s Office several days later and was arrested. He faced charges including murder, attempted murder, shooting into a motor vehicle, and use of a weapon in the commission of a violent crime, and a judge denied bond.

If anyone saw the Dodge Charger that night or has information about the events on Highway 151, please share what is known.
