- Jeryl Best comments on the violence at Lamar. Medium shot Arthur Stanley, President of the Darlington NAACP is pleased with the indictment of seven men responsible for Lamar violence.

Rioters attacked buses carrying elementary to high school aged children, fought with law enforcement officers, and overturned two empty school buses that students had recently fled.
