Investigators with the Richland County Sheriff’s Department are asking for the public’s help locating a man and woman wanted in connection with a murder that happened in April.
Sherman Jones (DOB: 5/27/2000) is wanted for murder and possession of a firearm during a violent crime. Ameria Capers (DOB: 6/16/1997) is wanted for accessory to murder after the fact.
The charges stem from a shooting on April 13 at a Columbia apartment complex.
Deputies were called to 7648 Garners Ferry Road around 12:25 pm that day for a shooting. When they arrived, a man was being transported to the hospital by EMS with a gunshot wound to the upper body. Once at the hospital, the victim succumbed to his injuries.
Jones and Capers are believed to be together and may be armed. Anyone who sees them should use caution and call 911.
Anyone who has any information on the whereabouts of Jones and Capers may also submit a tip to Crime Stoppers at crimesc.com. Tipsters may remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward if their tip leads to an arrest.
