NEWBERRY, S.C. — A fourth person now faces charges in the Oct. 17 shooting at a Wise Street block party in Newberry, the Newberry Police Department said.
Officers picked up Chrishaud Cromer, 21, early Sunday, and he went quietly. He is accused on three counts of high and aggravated assault and battery, plus a pair of counts for shooting into a vehicle, an aggravated breach of peace count and a weapon charge tied to a violent crime.
The gunfire broke out that Saturday near where Wise Street meets Holloway Street, and four people were wounded. Ambulances carried them to Newberry Health and Prisma Health.
Police had already arrested Jakevion Lott, 19, Jamyous Brooks, 17, and Victavis Gaines, 19, in the case. The department said it believes Cromer also had a hand in the violence.
Investigators are still working through many hours of camera footage and say others could be charged. Cases from Newberry County go to the solicitor’s office for the 8th Circuit. Tips go to the department at 803-321-1010.
