According to FOX Carolina, the sheriff’s office is specifically asking for help in identifying a person of interest connected to the case. The outlet reports the request comes as part of an active attempted murder investigation out of Pickens County, South Carolina.

The sheriff’s office shared photos of the man on Tuesday, according to WSPA. The station reports deputies believe the man may have been driving a 2026 or 2027 Nissan Sentra around the time of the incident near Anderson Highway.
