N. Charleston Police Investigating Reported Shooting at Cook Out
In a shocking incident, the North Charleston Police are investigating a shooting reportedly carried out at a fast-food restaurant named Cook Out. The episode unfolded on Dorchester Road, North Charleston, on a late Sunday night in July.
Suspects on the Loose
The police authorities are on an active lookout for the suspects who allegedly discharged their firearms into the premises of Cook Out. This incident occurred after the suspects had already paid for their food at the drive-through window, with the suspects reportedly starting a commotion about the lengthy wait time afterwards.
A Threatening Ordeal
As per the victim’s statement to the police, the suspects made grave threats against them. After making payment for their order, the passenger, clothed in a black ski mask, unhurprisingly exited from a gold-colored sedan and began firing shots. As highlighted by the victim, the suspects subsequently navigated around the establishment, returned to the drive-through window, and menacingly pointed their weapon at the victim once more before speeding off.
Investigation Underway
Though authorities were alerted and arrived to the scene promptly, the damage was already done. However, in an unexpected turn of events, investigators could not find any bullet holes or damage on the property. Adding to the puzzling nature of the case, although the suspects had made payment for their meal, neither police nor on-site managers were successful in obtaining the card details linked to the transaction. The lack of accessible surveillance footage has also proven to be a setback in the case.
Public Appeal
As part of their efforts to crack the case, the North Charleston Police Department has appealed to the public to assist with any information they may have about the incident. They can be reached at the 843-607-2076 helpline number.
