BEECH ISLAND, S.C. () – Aiken County Coroner’s Office is investigating the shooting death of a 10-year-old.

The incident happened just before midnight, Wednesday, at a home on the 100 block of Dorsett Kenzie Road, near Church Road off Pine Log Road.

Aiken County Coroner Darryl Ables has identified the victim as 10-year-old Lavinia Lowe. She was found on her bed with a gunshot wound to the head. Lavinia was pronounced dead at 1:30 a.m. An autopsy has been scheduled.

The Aiken County Sheriff’s Office, Coroner’s Office and SLED are investigating.

“Any murder is unacceptable, but the murder of an innocent child is the most depraved act
possible and these families, and this community should not have to endure acts like this. The
Aiken County Sheriff’s Office has all its resources focused on this murder and the murder that
occurred over the weekend. I have requested help from other local agencies, state agencies, and
federal agencies to assist us with these two cases.”
