BREAKING NEWS: SOUTH CAROLINA KILLER IS DEAD
Wow fantastic news, hope to learn the details soon.
This is huge the whole place was terrified waiting for his next kill
The serial killer?
Wow and so is Michael Jackson. Hmmmmmmm
A link would be nice.
I heard they shot a guy who pulled a gun on some officers this morning and killed him, then began looking for data on his possible involvement.
I’m wondering whether the got the guy, or are using this to close the murders...

Good. Big relief for them. I know the feeling because the Beltway Snipers were stalking my neighborhood in 2002 and it was very annoying.
DALLAS, North Carolina- Gaston County Police responding to a possible burglary call early Monday morning shot and killed a robbery suspect who may be linked to the serial killings in South Carolina.
According police, when they entered the residence, they found two people who lived there and a third who “was an acquaintance,” police said in a news release.
Officers began to check the individuals for identification and one suspect gave police false information. A second check on the suspect uncovered an outstanding warrant from Lincoln County. As officers attempted to serve the outstanding warrant the suspect pulled a gun and began firing at police officers. Officers returned fire killing the suspect.
Officer J.K. Shaw suffered a gunshot wound to the leg and has been treated and released from hospital.
URGENT — Police officials confirm that the killed burglary suspect in North Carolina was the South Carolina serial killer.

ping!
So is Robert S. McNamara - that's strange!
If true, this will definately be welcome news to all who live there.
No point in using it to close a case if the murders may continue tomorrow. I suspect they have something that ties the guy to the murders.
These officers, in arriving before the perp had time to finish the job, most probably saved the lives of the two people in the house being robbed.
No, there's no point, but it happens. It just seemed odd to me that a guy got into a shootout with two officers, and suddenly they're looking at him for the serial killings. The thread I read prior to this gave no information supporting that jump.
Praise Jesus!! The Upstate of SC has been on edge all weekend. I had a feeling that they got him after the first reports about the suspected killer being killed this afternoon.
They not are using this to close the murder case. Gaffney ain’t Chicago! The Gaffney killer would not stop unless in jail or dead. I give the cops a little more credit and assume that it bothers them when friends and neighbors a killed in cold blood.I don’t think they would let a killer continue just to close the case.
