Man, 37, charged with attempted murder after shooting another in Beaufort, police say
A 37-year-old man was charged Tuesday in an Oct. 10 shooting that sent one person to the hospital, according to the Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office.
Mark Wilson of Seabrook was charged with attempted murder, possession of a stolen firearm, possession of a weapon in the commission of a violent crime and possession of a firearm by a felon, according to the Beaufort County Detention Center jail log. Wilson was found by police Tuesday on Boundary Street, according to Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Maj. Bob Bromage.
