Family mourns on birthday of Spartanburg teen killed in July 2020
on November 29, 2020 at 4:36 am
SPARTANBRUG, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - Saturday was a somber start to the weekend for the family of Jalen "Jay" McNeil. He was supposed to be celebrating his 19th birthday in a weekend with loved ones. Instead, McNeil's family released balloons days after what would have been his birthday, continuing to call for answers as to who took his life on July 10, 2020, when he was just 18 years old and fatally shot at the Victorian Garden Apartments in Spartanburg. "It's constantly on my mind, because they took my child away from me. And it hurts so bad," said his mother Anika Bell. "It just seem like a nightmare. It doesn't seem real. It doesn't seem real; it just seems like a big nightmare. It's like a never-ending nightmare." To this day, no arrests have been made. And while his family ate pizza and cake with the balloon release, they still called for justice, for answers as to what happened and why Jay had to die. "I just don't understand it. Because he's not the type to start any trouble--with nobody," said Bell. "Jalen was a jokester. He always liked to joke, he liked to dance, play Madden, watch football. Just have a great time." The balloon release vigil was organized with Protect Our Secret Treasures, or P.O.S.T., a group that advocates against gun violence. They're helping Bell call for answers from law enforcement, and she says she isn't giving up on those answers. "I would like some justice. My family would like justice. He leaves behind siblings. He has a twin sister. Every one of his family and friends, we are suffering, and we need them as soon as possible." OUR PREVIOUS COVERAGE ON THIS CASE:
Meet Maxine "Big Momma" Davis. She just turned 100 and threw an axe to celebrate
on November 29, 2020 at 2:06 am
HARTWELL, G.A. (FOX Carolina) - Maxine Davis is known affectionately by her family as "Big Momma". She's also a very new centenarian, having just turned 100 years old recently. A century of life well-lived so far means she likely has plenty of good stories to tell. Now, add axe-throwing to one of those stories. Andrew Whitworth is one of the owners of Sublime Axe Throwing in Hartwell, Georgia, and just opened up for business on November 23. He didn't expect Big Momma to be among the first customers to show up and throw axes in his first week. And yet, she showed up with her family to partake in the rising trend of axe-throwing venues popping up across the U.S. So Whitworth decided to get his phone's camera ready and started recording. He did it at the right time too; he captured Big Momma landing her axe throw, just off the big red bullseye on the target. When the axe sticks, Davis is left with a happy surprise, pointing at her new accomplishment! Davis is yet another example of showing that age is just a number in many regards; chalk up axe-throwing as the newest skill she's picked up in her century of experience.
Troopers: Passenger killed in collision north of Easley
on November 28, 2020 at 11:57 pm
EASLEY, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - South Carolina Highway Patrol says a passenger has died after a collision Saturday afternoon in Pickens County. Troopers say it happened around 12:35 p.m. along SC-183, about two miles north of Easley. A 2020 Explorer with a driver and two juvenile passengers was traveling north on the highway when a southbound 2000 Ford Mustang carrying a driver and front passenger tried turning left onto Cannery Road. However, the Explorer then hit the Mustang. Everyone involved was wearing seat belts, and neither driver faced injury nor did the juvenile passengers in the Explorer. However, the passenger in the Mustang was transported for treatment to an area hospital, where they later passed away. The driver of the Mustang was charged for failure to yield. As of writing, the county coroner's office has not identified the passenger who died.
