COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - A man was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds outside of a Columbia apartment complex early Tuesday morning.

The victim was transported to an area hospital where he was later pronounced dead. The Richland County Coroner identified the man as Adaam Abdusslam, 26, of Salley.

According to the Richland County Sheriff’s Department, deputies responded to the Park Apartments at 1601 Longcreek Drive after receiving reports of a shooting.
