A shooting in Spartanburg County Tuesday night that had been initially reported as an accident, is now being investigated as a homicide.

Deputies responded to a home on Farm Creek Rd near Inman just after 9PM.  21-year-old Skyy Ernestasjah Logan was taken to Spartanburg Regional Hospital where she later died.

Initial information provided to deputies indicated that the victim was shot accidentally, by 19-year-old Jayvion Nyrek Rice. However, evidence at the scene did not support that claim.

Rice has been charged with murder and a weapons violation. He is currently being held in Spartanburg County pending a bond hearing. His arrest marks the latest in a rash of shootings involving teenagers across the Upstate.
