Back on Nov. 14, he and another person drove through someone’s yard on Wrangler Trail and fired a gun several times. The victim also told deputies that Strother threatened to kill the victim’s children that night.
Sumter Police told us Strother is a person of interest in connection with the shooting death of Chester Stavis. His body was found on Rast Street last week.
