A Greenville woman is behind bars after an incident that resulted in the tragic death of a 21-year-old black male victim on August 6.

According to the Greenville Police Department, officers responded to a distress call on Coleman Street reporting a shot person. Upon arrival at the scene, law enforcement contacted the victim, who had sustained gunshot wounds to his hand and pelvic area. Immediate medical attention was provided as the victim was rushed to Delta Health for treatment.

Despite efforts to transport the victim for further medical intervention via airlift, those attempts were unsucessful. The victim sadly succumbed to his wounds.

Authorities swiftly took action, leading to the arrest of 19-year-old Zamyra Lockett. Lockett faces charges of Manslaughter-Culpable Negligence and Tampering with Evidence concerning the incident. She is currently in custody at the Washington County Regional Correctional Facility.
