Yellow PagesMB man arrested, charged in August 2007 hotel shooting
A Myrtle Beach man is in jail on charges from a shooting last year outside an extended-stay motel.
Jonathan Edward Manigault, 23, was arrested Tuesday in the Burgess community of Horry County and charged with assault and battery with intent to kill.
A judge in Myrtle Beach set Manigault's bail at $100,000 Wednesday. Manigault was taken to J. Reuben Long Detention Center near Conway, according to Lt. Doug Furlong of the Myrtle Beach police.
Floyd Lowe, 35, of Conway was shot on Aug. 30 in front of the Suburban Extended Stay Motel at 730 Frontage Road E.
Police said the shooter was driving a truck and fired three shots from a handgun, hitting Lowe once.
Lowe's wife, Crystal Lowe, witnessed the shooting. She said a man shot her husband in the back over a disagreement at the motel between her husband and the man's brother.
Crystal Lowe said her husband began to walk away when the driver fired three shots from the open passenger-side window, as she and her mother watched nearby.
Officers from the Myrtle Beach Police Department, 15th Circuit Drug Enforcement Unit, State Law Enforcement Division, Horry County Police Department, Georgetown County Sheriff's Office, Georgetown Law Enforcement Center, Darlington County Sheriff's Office and Lexington County Sheriff's Office assisted in the arrest of Manigault, Furlong said.
