No charges expected in fatal Spartanburg County shooting
Authorities say they don't plan to charge a man who shot another man who tried to hit his estranged wife with his truck.
The coroner's office told WSPA-TV that 36-year-old Kenneth Ross Jr. of Greer was shot several times early Saturday morning and died at the hospital.
Deputies say Ross confronted his estranged wife and a male friend at her Spartanburg home and tried to hit the woman with his truck, but struck her car instead.
Authorities say Ross then started coming toward his estranged wife. The man got his gun and ordered Ross to stop.
Deputies say Ross kept getting closer, so the man fired.
Investigators say they consulted with prosecutors and decided not to charge the shooter because he was acting in self defense.
