According to the incident report, the Mustang wrecked into a tree at the corner of Summerville and Sumter streets. The report says the three young men ran from the area and the driver was apprehended a short time later at Summerville and Cardinal streets. Carl Stokes, director of law enforcement and safety, said the investigation continues as the USCPD A-I-- A- /?_ J AT Al __A_ ines 10 una me omer suspects. "Mainly, we've got to rely on the one (the juvenile) we've got," Stokes said. The juvenile who was arrested was charged with carjacking, assault with intent to kill, carrying a firearm acjjacent to a college building, possession of a pistol (while being) under 21 years of age and unlawful possession of a pistol, according to the police report. The report says he was transported to Richland County Detention Center. Stokes said USC has not had a car jacking in the 16 years he's been here. "I don't anticipate any of this happening again," Stokes said. If students ever encounter someone in a parking lot who has a weapon and wants their car, Stokes said they should, "Be as nice and friendly and cooperative as you can. Thaf s the proper reaction - to try and be cooperative as you can and let the police catch them later." Stokes said, "The most important thing is to save your life." Four found with guns in Russell House lot CECE VON KOtNfTZ News Editor In the same parking lot where a USC student's car was stolen at gunpioint, in a separate incident, four young men were arrested for illegal gun possession Tony Jones, 17, Paul Jackson, 24, Douglas Smith, 20, and John Wallace, 17, were arrested after they left the parking lot between the Russell House and Thomas Cooper Library. Carl Stokes, director of law enforcement and safety, said the fact that a carjacking occurred and four young men were found in possession of guns, happened on the same night (Aug. 7) and each incident began in the same parking lot, within hours of each other, is "coincidental." Stokes said, "We look at the information and the evidence to see if there's any tie-in. The only tie-in would be if they knew each other." Stokes said a connection is unlikely because the young men who were charged with gun possession were in jail when the carjacking occurred.
