A Friday break-in on Richland Avenue W saw a purse stolen from an unlocked car. An air-conditioning unit worth about $2,000 was stolen from a Florence Street address. A 2005 Dodge Magnum was stolen from Date Palm Circle and logged in the national crime computer. The investigations are ongoing.
The badly decomposed body of a black woman was found around 2:30 p.m. Monday near Union Church Lane in Aiken close to the home of missing Mattie Coleman, who vanished March 30. Coroner Tim Carlton said identification will rely on dental records or DNA and the death's cause is not yet clear. He warned foul play is not yet suspected and the investigation remains open. The office may seek DNA from Coleman's two sons in New York if needed.
A body was discovered in a wooded area near Coleman's Union Church Lane residence. Authorities note it is unclear if the remains belong to missing person Coleman or others, with earlier skeletal remains of 39 year old Jasper Jefferson III identified by dental records after DNA testing.
Wagener police intercepted Marvin J. Ginyard 20 of Aiken who was sought for an armed robbery earlier in the month. He allegedly fired a small caliber weapon at pursuing officers to avoid arrest. No injuries reported.
