LEXINGTON, S.C. –A Swansea man is accused of shooting two men, one of whom died, Tuesday morning after a fight with one of them days earlier.
Joey Len Inabinet Jr., 29, is charged with murder, attempted murder, possession of a weapon during a violent crime and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, according to arrest warrants.
“A deputy responded to a call about a shooting at a home on Calvary Church Road before daybreak Tuesday morning,” Lexington County Sheriff Jay Koon said. “He found a man who had been shot but was conscious and breathing, then a witness told him someone else was shot down the road. The deputy performed CPR on the second shooting victim until EMS arrived. The second victim was later pronounced dead.
“We found shell casings at the scene consistent with a gun we know has been in Inabinet’s possession,” Koon said. “Our investigation into this case is ongoing; however, we are very glad to have Inabinet in custody.”
Koon said Inabniet was arrested late Tuesday morning. He’s being held in the Lexington County Detention Center.
