Columbia Police are looking for a suspect accused of shooting a Columbia man on June 5.
Marion County resident Evan Lampton is accused of shooting Chris Fountain, 36, according to Columbia Police Detective Chris Brumfield. Formal charges against Lampton were signed Monday.
“We’re trying to gather information on (Lampton’s) whereabouts so we can execute an arrest warrant,” said Brumfield
Anyone with information on Lampton’s whereabouts is asked to please call the Columbia Police Department at (601) 736-8052. Lampton is wanted on a charge of felony aggravated assault.
Fountain was shot twice, but five shots were fired, Brumfield said. Fountain was visiting a friend’s house at 704 Owens St. when the shooting occurred, Brumfield said. Lampton showed up in a vehicle with three or four other people and fired shots at Fountain with a .380 caliber handgun, said Brumfield.
After the shooting, Fountain was airlifted to Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg where he was released about a day later.
He has a facebook the police could always start their
facebook was the 1st place i looked too
Ha ha that is so funny i mean he is a big dude probably not to hard to find. I wanted to friend request him if he excepts i can narrow it down that he eithe has a phone with internet or is at a place using a computer with internet. I so wanna be a detective
Why don’t you go get educated then. Maybe then some of you would see its not an easy job. Its a whole lot easier when you think you can do something and you can LEGALLY do something
HUH???? I think I got what you were trying to say but I’d hate to make a legal decision based on your writing style. No offence intended but your words would carry more weight if your sentences were better thought out and run through a spell-check; I personally copy my writings into Microsoft Word for a quick check and then paste it back into here… “I’m just saying”
I could also see you were writing under emotional stress and that’s not a good thing if it’s meant to persuade others or get a point across.
I think our local law enforcement is lacking in performance overall but that’s not to say ALL of them are.
I heard he working down on the coast staying at a friends house I hope justice is found in all of this its long overdue
Its always so obvious who still standn is. I’m sure they will get him but remember this one word, ‘Karma’. Heck, @ least he’s not dead like Rodney n Fred. I’m jus sayn….
@karma yeah you so right Karma is a B**** and he not dead by the grace the God but these boys being trying to kill him for how long and when he finally gets tired of them playing and starts shooting back then people end of dead for no reason such as Rodney & Fred I’m just saying thats KARMA & who is still standin since its obvious and you know so much
thanks everyone for their concern & support but yes KARMA is nothing to play with because when the victim gets tired of playing with these lit boys thats what happens people end up dead for no reason.The victim was cleared from those charges of Rodney & Fred it was self defense,the victim & God has a great relationship & God has something in store for him that these lit boys need to understand that they cant keep playing with a child of God.
and yes it obvious who 1st Lady is yes i am the 1st Lady and as long as something is been written about mine i will speak whats on mind aint nobody bout to get on here and act like my husband just walk around here killing people for no reason get all your facts straight before passing judgement on the situation.
U evidently did not get properly educated in English. Your grammar is horrible.
Ebonics… you have got to be kidding me right? Shes on here expressing her feelings about who’s obviously her husband/maybe boyfriend and all you can think of to write is about her English!!!?? Wow I believe I would have kept that one to myself.. of course taking a life is wrong but until you are put in the situation of it being u or the next man how can u judge him? Enough said
thanks citizen since we correcting each others grammer you dont start a sentence using the word or letter you or u, so did you get properly educated
