On November 16, 2018, at about 12:45 a.m., 30-year-old Norris Shawndra Bates was shot during a dispute inside the Swagg Bar and Grill in Greenville County, South Carolina. He was taken to Greenville Memorial Hospital, underwent surgery, and died of his gunshot wound at around 9:40 a.m. that same morning. An autopsy confirmed the gunshot wound as the cause of death.

Investigators identified 32-year-old Timathius Lewers as the person involved in the altercation. Lewers was found at a residence on Pine Creek Court Extension with a minor, self-inflicted gunshot wound to his leg. After treatment, he was taken into custody and charged with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime; he was booked into the Greenville County Detention Center.

Are there witnesses who were at the Swagg Bar and Grill that night or anyone with information about the dispute that led to Bates being shot?
