The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) has charged Treveion James Crawford, 18, with Carrying a Weapon on School Property. The arrest comes amid SLED's ongoing investigation into two shootings at South Carolina State University in early October.
According to the SLED arrest warrant, a video shows Crawford possessing a handgun in the courtyard of Hugine Suites on the evening of Oct. 4—the day of the shootings. Investigators say Jaliyah Butler, 19, was killed in the gunfire while a second shooting on campus that same evening left a man injured.
The shootings are not believed to be connected at this time; however, SLED continues to investigate the incidents. Anyone with information on either incident should call (866) 472-8477 and/or email tips@sled.sc.gov.
