Gunman Opens Fire Into Crowd at Another Nightclub — This Might Be Why the Incident Isn’t Leading the News

Police said Jody Ray Thompson pulled out a gun during an argument in front of the Playoffz nightclub in Lyman, South Carolina, early Sunday morning and fired at a gathered crowd, hitting three people.

Spartanburg County Sheriff’s deputies told WHNS-TV Thompson almost hit a fourth person — who just so happens to be a concealed carry permit holder.

Lt. Kevin Bobo said that the man pulled out his own gun in self defense and fired back at Thompson, hitting him in the leg.

The concealed carry permit holder, who hasn’t been named, cooperated with investigators and won’t be facing any charges stemming from the 3:30 a.m. incident, WHNS reported.

From the article:

"...none of the shooting victims’ injuries were life threatening..."

Could this be why it's not leading the news?

You won't see it reported because a law abiding citizen stopped it with a gun before it turned into another Orlando.

Concealed carry stops mass shootings and the liberals don't want that out for it does not fit their New World Order where they are in charge of all guns and who can have one!

They probably get tired of complaints of their news in Dover and O.C.
Why would they want to hear complaints about stories in S.C.?
