Was Abby Tyler killed by the SC serial killer?
Authorities say a teen girl shot in father’s store is the fifth victim of suspected South Carolina serial killer. Cherokee County Coroner Dennis Fowler says Abby Tyler, 15, died as a result to gunshot injuries. Her death comes two days after a shooting at her family’s small furniture and appliance store in Gaffney, S.C. on Thursday. The teen’s father, Stephen Tyler, 45, was also shot and killed Thursday at Tyler Home Center. Cherokee County Sheriff Bill Blanton said Stephen Tyler’s shooting death and those of three others since last Saturday — a peach farmer, an elderly woman and her daughter — are connected. “We’re concerned,” Blanton told reporters Friday. “We’re dealing with a man that’s killed four people.” The suspect is described as 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighing 200 pounds, with blue eyes. Blanton classified him as a serial killer. Police released a sketch Friday of the serial killer on the loose who they believe murdered the people in six days in rural South Carolina. Invest
