The search is over for a man that authorities say murdered a man in Lexington County.

Lexington County Sheriff’s Department and South Carolina Law Enforcement Division agents arrested Charlie Don Robinson III, better known as Corey Robinson and charged him with the shooting death of Robert William All, Jr, 22, of Gilbert.

Late on July 11, Lexington Sheriff’s deputies responded to shots fired at the 100 block of Toole Smith Road in Swansea. At the scene, police found All alive with what was reported as at least one gun shot wound. He was transported for medical treatment.

On July 12, Lexington County Coroner Margaret Fisher said All sustained multiple gun shot wounds. He died shortly after his arrival to the hospital. Fisher pronounced All a victim of homicide.

On Friday, following the collection of evidence at the scene and interviews with several witnesses, LCSD announced Robinson as a suspect. Sheriff Jay Koon called his apprehension a “top priority.”

“Someone knows where he is or where he’s going,” Koon said.

The Sheriff’s Department announced Robinson’s arrest about nine hours after beginning their search.

Based on evidence collected at the scene, LCSD said Robinson shot All multiple times and drove away. Robinson will most likely face additional charges that have yet to be filed, according to LCSD.
