A deadly burst of gunfire on an Anderson side street has left one teenager dead and another accused of murder, rattling neighbors in the Tribble Street area in the early morning hours. Police say they are still piecing together what led up to the shooting and are asking anyone who saw or recorded anything to come forward.

The Anderson County coroner identified the victim as 18-year-old Jameek Suber and ruled his death a homicide.

Authorities later took a 19-year-old into custody, and he has been accused of murder in connection with Suber’s killing, as reported by Atlanta News First. Investigators say they want to hear from anyone who may have information, including home or doorbell camera footage, to help them lock in a clearer timeline of what happened before and after the shots were fired.
Investigation And Community Response

Officials told reporters the incident appears limited to those directly involved and that there is no known ongoing threat to the wider public, per Atlanta News First.
