ANDERSON, S.C. (AP) - In a story Aug. 13 about a man accused in the deaths of his mother and grandmother, The Associated Press reported erroneously that the murder suspect was in jail on a charge of attempted murder in the shooting death of another man. That man did not die.
A corrected version of the story is below:
Man accused of beating, stabbing, shooting mom, grandmother
A South Carolina man is accused of beating, stabbing and strangling his mother and grandmother and shooting each in the head
ANDERSON, S.C. (AP) - A South Carolina man is accused of beating, stabbing and strangling his mother and grandmother and shooting each in the head.
Citing arrest warrants, the Anderson Independent Mail reported Monday that 29-year-old Bradley Aldrich is charged with murder for the deaths of 50-year-old Theresa Wright and 79-year-old Judith Calvert.
The warrants say Aldrich lived with the two women in Anderson. He was in jail on an unrelated charge when their bodies were found by a relative in early May. He was jailed then on a charge of attempted murder for the shooting of a 40-year-old man.
Anderson County Sheriff Chad McBride says authorities are investigating how the man and the two women are connected.
It’s unclear if Aldrich has a lawyer.
