FORT MILL, S.C. – Jim Robinson says it’ll cost more than $300 to replace the shattered window on his minivan. Β “My daughter was sitting on the passenger side, and it got all over her,” he says. Β Robinson and the ten-year-old were driving down Hensley Road in Fort MillΒ on SaturdayΒ when a bullet hit their window. Β He says, “It actually scared me so bad that I veered over into the lane. If there’da been anything coming, I probably woulda hit it head on.”Β
Same thing happened to Fort Mill resident David Csiszer. Β He was driving down Hensley with his wife, mother and daughter on his way toΒ SaturdayΒ night church services when their car was also hit by some type of bullet. Β He says, “It has a lot of people terrified. Everybody knows about it in the neighborhood. Β It’s horrible to be scared coming outta your own driveway.”Β
And it also happened to Jimmy McClurg as he drove down Hensley RoadΒ on Saturday. Β He points to a hole on his vehicle and says, “It looks like a bullet hole!” Β His car appears to have been hit not just once, but twice. Β He says, “It’s a thousand dollars worth of damage to a brand new Jeep.”Β
McClurg found a piece of metal lodged in one of the holes. Β He says its from a pellet gun. Β The York County Sheriff’s Office agrees. Β A sheriff’s spokesman tells WCCB they have identified a possible suspect, but declined to say more. Β Word around town is that it’s a teenager pulling some kind of prank. Β
Until an arrest is made, Robinson is thinking twice before driving down Hensley and says this to the shooter: “They just really need to use better judgment. They know right from wrong.”Β
The York County Sheriff’s Office spokesman tells WCCB they may release more information about a possible suspectΒ on Thursday.
