Manhunt Underway for Three Women Accused of Assaulting Restaurant Employees in Clover, South Carolina

Deputies Search for Women who Reportedly Assaulted Employees at Restaurant in Clover

Clover, South Carolina continues to be a hotbed for discussion as deputies from the York County Sheriff’s Office have launched a manhunt for three unidentified women who are reported to have assaulted employees at a Clover restaurant. The trio’s reckless and rogue behavior left two employees with offenses, igniting a flurry of activity amongst officials.

Unraveling the Incident

The incident took place on the evening of Thursday, January 4th, around 6:20 PM at the Kochi Japanese Steakhouse, situated on 5360 Hwy 557 in Clover. A heated situation soon escalated into violence and the women were reported to have acted out menacingly against the restaurant staff.

According to information released by the York County Sheriff’s Office, one of the women involved in the altercation went the extra mile of intimidation. She reportedly made her way to what witnesses described as a white Chevy Equinox, from which she retrieved a firearm. She then discharged two rounds into the air before turning the weapon towards the victims in a threatening manner.

A Horrifying Ordeal

Meanwhile, amidst the sounding gunfire, a second woman from the group allegedly engaged in physical violence with one of the restaurant’s workers. According to reports, she gripped onto the employee’s hair, forcefully pulling them down to the ground, and proceeded to punch them.

The alarm caused by these shocking events has since led to an expansive search for these unidentified women who are currently under investigation for assault charges and brandishing a firearm.

Seeking Community Assistance

Despite the prevailing uncertainty, the York County Sheriff’s Office remains hopeful and urges local community members who might have any information about the women to come forward. They have called upon anyone who can identify the women from images released by their department to contact the York County Crime Stoppers.

Upholding Safety

While this incident has understandably alarmed the Clover community, the York County Sheriff’s Office continues its unwavering commitment to the safety and security of its local residents. This episode underscores their dedication to maintaining not only the rule of law but also enforcing a reassuring sense of order within the community.

The Sheriff’s Office has assured community members that they are doing their utmost to identify, track down and bring these women to justice as swiftly as possible. The situation no doubt serves a stark reminder of the essential role that residents themselves serve as eyes and ears on the ground in aiding local law enforcement efforts. For now, the investigation is ongoing as deputies continue their search for the trio who carried out this daring episode of public violence.
