The brother of an Indianapolis Colts player was killed in a drive-by shooting in South Carolina, WHNS reported.
Overton Deshan Good, 23, the brother of Colts offensive lineman Denzelle Good, was killed Tuesday morning, the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office said.
Cherokee County Sheriff Steve Mueller said Jermaine Jefferies, 20, was arrested Tuesday afternoon and charged with murder, WHNS reported.
“Mr. Good and a friend were in the residence when gunfire erupted about 8:30 a.m. Multiple bullets struck the single wide mobile home, one of them striking the victim in the head. He was pronounced dead at the scene,” Cherokee County coroner Dennis Fowler said in a news release.
Mueller said a silver vehicle drove by Overton Good's home again and began shooting, WHNS reported.
Denzelle Good missed the team's walk-through Tuesday, the Colts told the Indianapolis Star. It is uncertain if the lineman will play Thursday night in New England.
The team released a statement that said, "The Indianapolis Colts family is so saddened to learn of the passing of Overton Good, brother of our very own Denzelle Good, in South Carolina. This tragedy is unimaginable for his loved ones and friends, and our heartfelt prayers go out to Denzelle and his entire family during this trying time."
