Pageland man sentenced in Myrtle Beach shooting

Fifteenth Circuit Solicitor Jimmy Richardson has announced that yesterday a Pageland man was sentenced to 10 years in prison for his role in a May 2020 shooting incident on Ocean Boulevard in Myrtle Beach.

Twenty-three-year-old Quandre Tyson of Pageland pleaded guilty on June 6 to assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature and possession of oxycodone, according to Mary-Ellen Walter, the senior assistant solicitor who prosecuted the case for the 15th Circuit Solicitor’s Office.

The Honorable Circuit Court Judge H. Steven DeBerry IV sentenced Tyson to 10 years in prison. By statute, this is considered a violent and serious ‘no-parole’ felony offense, meaning Tyson will serve at least 85 percent of his sentence.
