Local media outlets reported that 38-year-old Curtis Hicks was arrested in Miami on Tuesday. Hicks has been charged with murder and attempted murder for a shooting in Columbia on Saturday morning.
Twenty-year-old D’Angelo Jamal Perry died in the shooting at a Columbia apartment complex. A second man was wounded. His name has not been released.

He is awaiting extradition back to South Carolina.
