A shootout in the parking area of Forestview Apartments in Liberty, South Carolina, on October 10, 2014, left two family members dead and another man injured. The exchange began about 2:30 p.m.; civilians were trying to render aid when police arrived and found 22-year-old Houston Chapman on a sidewalk and 42-year-old Steven Chapman and 32-year-old Benjamin James Pilgrim wounded in the parking lot. Houston Chapman was pronounced dead at the scene. Steven Chapman was taken to Baptist Easley Hospital and later died of his injuries.

Investigators tied the shooting to a months-long dispute between Houston Chapman and Benjamin James Pilgrim, who lived in the same complex and was engaged to a Chapman family member. The investigation concluded that a shot from Houston’s gun struck and killed his uncle Steven, but Pilgrim was later arrested and charged with two counts of murder and a weapons charge on the theory that Pilgrim’s actions caused the deaths.
