Man shot at Summerville-area nightclub
By Andy Paras
Dorchester County Sheriff's deputies are investigating a shooting this morning at a Summerville-area nightclub.
The shooting occurred at Club NV, formerly Uncle Willie's Social Club, at 401 N. Maple Street in Summerville, Lt. Tony Phinney said.
As deputies responded to the scene at about 2:40 a.m., a Summerville Police officer was flagged down on U.S. 17A by a man who had been shot at the club, Phinney said.
Jamie A. Fernandez, 34, sustained a gunshot wound to his upper-thigh. He was taken to the University Medical Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, Phinney said.
Phinney said the victim and several witnesses, some whom showed up at the Sheriff's Office, have not been cooperative with detectives.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call Phinney at the Sheriff's Office at (843) 832-0300.

yeah this guy is hiding something on the reason he got shot, why would you want to keep info away from the cops after you flag the cops down for help after being shot!

Bumpersticker asked: do most bloggers wait until facts are out or do they just start assumming?
After being here a while it seems the stories are the same old thing over and over again. The victim knows there will be no punishment for the suspect. If the victim talks, he will then have to watch his back really close. I had a freind killed while at a party and the police can do nothing to the killer even though we know their name and how it happened. It is too easy for criminals this day and age to get away with murder. There should be a death penalty for murder across the board.

Bumpersticker- read the comments on here and you will learn there are quite a few closed minded individuals that assume whatever they want for the day. Doesn't help that the P&C steers stories & headlines in over the top directions sometimes. There are a few (and I mean a few) of the comments that are actually worth reading.

FIRST OF ALL I DIDN'T KNOW AMERICANS NEEDED GREEN CARDS, 2ND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THE MAN WAS WORKING SECURITY AT THE NIGHTCLUB, I ALSO HEARD THAT THE MAN DID NOT FLAG DOWN POLICE OFFICER HE WAS PULLED OVER FOR SPEEDING. AS FOR BUMPERSTICKERS COMMENT I AGREE WITH YOU TOTALLY. THERE ARE THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE CLOSED MINDED AND ARE ALWAYS QUICK TO POINT THE FINGER AND BLAME.AS FOR THE OTHER COMMENTS USE YOUR OWN WORDS NOT LYRICS FROM RAP SONGS. I HOPE ALL ARE WELL.
