North Carolina Man Arrested Following Family Drug Dispute and Weekend Shooting

In a shocking turn of events, a 60-year-old man from Nakina, North Carolina, has found himself behind bars after an alleged shooting incident in Horry County this past weekend. David Grice is facing serious charges that have left the local community both stunned and concerned.

The Incident Unfolds

Late on Friday night, things took a dangerous turn when Grice allegedly broke into a home located on Highway 348, leading to a confrontation that left one person injured. Reports suggest that Grice was filled with anger after allegedly accusing the victim of supplying drugs to his son, who tragically passed away earlier that same day. This emotional dispute quickly escalated into violence, with Grice reportedly shooting the victim twice – once in the arm and once in the chest.

A Quick Arrest

Following the shooting, Grice’s evening took another misfortunate twist as he was found by police near the road with his vehicle stuck in a ditch, leading to an arrest for driving under the influence. A subsequent search of his vehicle uncovered a prescription bag containing a name and address matching that of the shooting location, establishing a deeper connection to the crime.

Since his arrest, Grice has been held at the J. Reuben Long Detention Center with no bond set. With multiple charges hanging overhead, including attempted murder and first-degree burglary, it’s unclear what the next steps will be for Grice as he faces the consequences of his actions.

Separate Case Involving Armed Suspects

David Lee Mills, aged 40, and Brittany Dawn Hunter, aged 32. The shooting occurred at the Sleep Inn near the Tanger Outlets on Waccamaw Pines Drive. Authorities have deemed both suspects as armed and dangerous.

Details on the Suspects

As the search continues, the police are asking for the public’s help in locating Mills and Hunter. Mills is described as approximately 5’11” tall, weighing around 155 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. The last known outfit he was spotted in included black pants, a red long-sleeve shirt, a black vest jacket, and a red toboggan hat.

On the other hand, Brittany Hunter is noted to be around 5’0” and approximately 100 pounds. She has brown hair and brown eyes, and the last time she was seen, she wore red pants, a red shirt, a pink jacket, and white shoes. Each detail can piece together the missing puzzle and potentially aid in their capture.

Community Alert

The shooting victim from the January incident was fortunately taken to a local hospital in a private vehicle, which means hope is still alive for a quick recovery. But the police are calling on anyone who may have information on Mills and Hunter’s whereabouts to assist in bringing them to justice. You can reach the Horry County Police tipline at 843-915-8477.
