A quiet afternoon at the Independence Mobile Home Park in Burton, South Carolina, was shattered by gunfire around 4 p.m. on a Wednesday. Twenty-year-old Ty Haskell Jenkins IV, a resident of St. Helena, was found by Beaufort County Sheriff’s deputies with multiple gunshot wounds and died at the scene.

Authorities identified 21-year-old Tyre Joe Atkins, also from St. Helena Island, as the suspect and described him as 5 feet 10 inches and 170 pounds. Officials labeled him armed and dangerous and launched a manhunt, during which the 2015 blue Jeep Cherokee Atkins was reported to have been driving was located. The suspect remained at large while investigators continued their search.

Anyone with information about the shooting or Atkins’s whereabouts is urged to contact local law enforcement.
