Good Samaritan rescued jet skier then shot him in self-defense, sheriff says

(NEXSTAR) – A stranded jet skier without a life preserver was saved from a South Carolina lake only to be shot to death by his rescuer after growing agitated, according to a local sheriff’s department.

A man and a woman were spotted in the water in Lake Keowee last Tuesday by a couple on a pontoon boat. The couple made their way over to the jet skiers and pulled them from the water. Deputies say the pair were not wearing life jackets when they were rescued.

Oconee County Sheriff’s deputies say they were called in around 2:16 p.m. when the situation became violent.

    2. Driving home one day I noticed several saplings uprooted and thrown into the street. They had recently been planted in the grass parkway. There was a guy in the street, lunging at traffic with the last little tree.

      It was my old roommate, 12-pack Dave.
