NEWBERRY COUNTY, S.C. (WOLO) – Newberry County deputies say they arrested one man and searching for another suspect for grand larceny on Friday.

Authorities say Jesse Duke, 33, is charged with grand larceny.

According to investigators, deputies were called to a residence in Peak about a theft of a golf cart early Friday morning.
