S.C. teen found dead under bridge in Charleston

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - Authorities say a 15-year-old boy has been found shot to death under an Interstate 26 overpass in Charleston.

Multiple media outlets reported that someone called 911 around 8 a.m. Tuesday and reported a body in a pool of blood.

Coroner Rae Wooten says 15-year-old Jermel Brown died from several gunshots.

Several witnesses reported hearing a number of shots the night before.

Police say they don't have a motive or any suspects.
