The Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office is investigating after a local business sign was struck by gunfire multiple times. The incident occurred overnight, leaving the sign riddled with bullet holes. Authorities have now released surveillance images of a vehicle believed to be connected to the crime, urging the public for assistance.

The released pictures show a dark-colored sedan, possibly a Chevrolet Impala from the early 2000s model years. Investigators are asking community members to examine the images closely, noting any distinguishing features or damage on the vehicle. They hope someone may recognize the car or recall seeing it in the area around the time of the shooting.

While no injuries were reported, the act of vandalism involving a firearm has raised serious concerns. Deputies are working to determine a motive and identify the occupants of the vehicle. The Sheriff's Office emphasizes that any information, no matter how small it may seem, could be vital to the investigation. Community cooperation is seen as essential in identifying those responsible for the reckless discharge of a weapon.
