WALTERBORO, S.C. (WCBD) – A man wanted in connection with a deadly August 15 shooting has been taken into custody, according to the Walterboro Police Department.

Marvis Williams was arrested without incident on Sunday and is being held at the Colleton County Detention Center.

Officers with the Walterboro Police Department responded to a shooting at the Barrel House Grille on Robertson Avenue during the night of August 15, 2023.
