Hey there, Beaufort! We’ve got some serious news to share today, as the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office has made significant progress in an ongoing investigation. It’s always a shock when something like this happens in our community, but every detail matters. Let’s break down what’s been going on following that tragic shooting back in September.
On the evening of September 15, a shooting occurred at the Magnolia Park Apartments in Burton, a part of our Beaufort County family. The scene unfolded in a way that left many locals shaken. Tragically, one individual lost their life, while two others suffered injuries during the incident. It’s a grim reminder of how something can change in an instant.
Fast forward to today, and it seems that law enforcement is getting to the bottom of this unsettling situation. The sheriff’s office has arrested three men in connection to the shooting: Storm Lemont Zop Polite, 23, along with two 18-year-olds, Jeremiah Kieyonte Warren and Rashod Lorenzo Williams. They are now facing a slew of charges, including Murder, Possession of a Weapon During the Commission of a Violent Crime, and Aggravated Breach of Peace.
As it stands, all three suspects are currently in custody at the Beaufort County Detention Center. Each arrest brings us one step closer to justice for the victims and their families.
The Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office is keen on reassuring the public that they are thoroughly investigating this incident. They’re urging anyone with additional information to come forward and help out. If you know something — no matter how small it may seem — every bit can be valuable in piecing together what happened that day.
For those who might have tips or anything to share, you can reach out directly to Master Sergeant Duncan at 843-255-3418. If you prefer sending in information online, you can do that too by visiting the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office website. Your help could make a significant difference!

It’s important, especially in times of distress, to stay informed so that we can support each other. This is our neighborhood, and together, we can foster a sense of safety and vigilance.
