Agents say they arrested Rockell Jermaine Cummings, 28, for possession of a stolen handgun, unlawful carrying of a firearm, and pointing and presenting a firearm.

According to SLED, in November 2021, Cummings was a passenger in a vehicle when he was stopped by Walterboro Police. After concealing a handgun, the suspect fled by foot from law enforcement and was later identified through forensic evidence left at the scene.

Cummings was booked at the Colleton County Detention Center.
