BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.–According to Chief Deputy Mike Cochran, one person has been arrested in connection with a deadly home invasion that occurred early Sunday morning at 512 McCrystal Circle in the Moncks Corner area.
Glenn Randall Lane II, 29, of North Charleston was arrested within 12 hours of the crime and has been charged with murder. Lane also faces additional charges including: conspiracy, burglary 1st degree and six counts of kidnapping.
Cochran says during the early morning hours of September 27th, Berkeley County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the scene and found a 32-year-old male victim, Mark Conner, with a single gunshot wound.
The victim was transported to Trident Hospital by Berkeley County EMS personnel where he was pronounced dead.
