RICHLAND COUNTY, S.C. (WOLO)– RCSD Sheriff Leon Lott says two people have been arrested in connection with a June bar shooting that left one injured. On June 10, 2026, around 5:45 a.m., deputies responded to 851 Bush River Road for reports of shots fired with one individual receiving a gunshot wound in the upper body area. Columbia Police was able to locate the victim and her vehicle and Richland County EMS was dispatched to take her to a local hospital for medical treatment. Deputies found that a physical altercation had taken place in the parking lot, stemming from an argument inside, and the victim was shot, says RCSD. Upon further investigation, RCSD investigators ascertained through video footage that Saquan Davis and Alterik Mays arrived at the restaurant together. Both men were seen on video with firearms, shooting at the victim, according to RCSD. Saquan Davis was arrested on Monday, July 20, on warrants related to this shooting after a traffic stop in the Rock Hill area. He will be taken to the Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center where he is charged with attempted murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. Alterik Mays was arrested by the Richland County Sheriff’s Department on July 8, after a traffic stop. He was taken into custody at that time on an attempted murder warrant related to this shooting. After being released on a $150,000 surety bond, Mays was arrested again on July 16, following the execution of a search warrant connected to the shooting investigation, says RCSD. Mays is charged with attempted murder, possession of a weapon during a violent crime, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and additional charges related to narcotics and a firearm found inside the home where he was staying. He also faces charges under Sheriff Leon Lott’s Parent Accountability Initiative after investigators found juveniles had access to the unsecured firearm and narcotics. Addionally, Mays had recently been released from the South Carolina Department of Corrections after serving time on a 2024 attempted murder conviction. Alterik Mays bond related to the charges from the search warrant were set as a $75,000 surety bond. Saquan Davis is awaiting a bond hearing, according to RCSD.
