A teenager was killed in a shooting at a South Carolina McDonald’s, the Aiken County Coroner’s Office said.

Thaj Nance-Parker, 16, was at the parking lot of the fast food restaurant on York Street when he was shot at about 7 p.m. Friday, Coroner Darryl Ables said in a news release. That’s less than a mile from Aiken High School.

After being hit by gunfire, the teenager was taken to Aiken Regional Medical Centers where he died, according to the release.

An autopsy was scheduled in Newberry for Nance-Parker, whose cause of death was listed as gunshot wound, Ables said.

No other injuries were reported.
