2 SC teens shot dead in Lee County disputes

BISHOPVILLE, S.C. (AP) — The Lee County Sheriff says the body of missing a 17-year-old has been found in some woods.

Sheriff Daniel Simon told multiple media outlets Tuesday that Shakez Bracey and 18-year old Dontrell Fortune got into a dispute over money. The sheriff says Fortune and three others led Bracey to the woods where he was killed Friday night.

The sheriff says Fortune was killed Saturday in apparent retaliation.

Four teens have been charged with murder in Fortune’s death, including a 17-year-old. Bond was denied for all four, including 18-year-old Davon Tyrell McFadden, 18-year-old Kevin Oneal White, and 18-year-old Kevin Goodman.

The sheriff says three minors arrested Tuesday are charged with murder in Bracey’s death, including a 17-year-old girl and two 16-year-old boys.
