GAFFNEY, S.C. – A teenage girl shot while helping her father in their family's small furniture and appliance store died Saturday, becoming the fifth victim of a suspected serial killer terrorizing a small South Carolina community, authorities said.

Abby Tyler, 15, died about 11:15 a.m. at a Spartanburg hospital after fighting for her life for two days, Cherokee County Coroner Dennis Fowler said.

Tyler was wounded and her father was killed Thursday as they worked to close the Tyler Home Center near downtown Gaffney.

County Sheriff Bill Blanton said investigators believe the killings are linked and the search is on for a suspected male serial killer. An 83-year-old mother and her daughter were shot to death Wednesday, and a 63-year-old peach farmer was found dead at his home a week ago.

Blanton said all the victims were shot, but he would not say how the deaths were linked. The shootings all occurred within about 10 miles of each other in Cherokee County, a rural community of 54,000 people set amid peach orchards and farms some 50 miles west of Charlotte, N.C.

The spree had alarmed residents canceling Independence Day holiday plans and arming themselves. The sheriff has warned door-to-door salesmen to stop knocking and anyone who breaks down on the county's rural roads to wait instead of walking to a house for help because he worries "people are going to start shooting at shadows."

The killings began a week ago Saturday when the wife of 63-year-old peach farmer Kline Cash found him dead in their home. Then last Wednesday, relatives found 83-year-old Hazel Linder and her 50-year-old daughter, Gena Linder Parker, bound and shot to death in a separate shooting at Linder's home.

Dozens of local, state and federal investigators were assigned to the case when the killings were linked. But a day later, the killer struck again, less than a half-mile from the sheriff's office serving as the headquarters for the investigation, killing 48-year-old Stephen Tyler and his daughter.

Is there any way we can get Pelosi to take a short vacation in SC?

somehow someway the shooter is linked to the first victim. The peach farmer is the key to solving the case.

I think it was Professor Plum in the study who shot Farmer Peach.

About 15 minutes up I-85 from me. Gaffney is just after I-85 drops back down to 4 lanes as the non-stop heavy industry through GSP winds down. I have relatives in law enforcement in the area. Anybody with a badge is out there as much as they can be.

Gaffney is a big High School football town, with a famous water tower you can see from the Interstate. Its a peach, but it looks like a butt with a hemroid

This may be the first thing you've ever said that's spot on.

Anybody seen Mark Sanford lately?

I don't know if anyone has heard, but there was just a shooting that resulted in a dead officer in an NC boarder town. No official word on whether it is related to the cases in SC.

I don't think the officer was seriously hurt, but the man who shot him is dead. And it has been announced that he was the serial killer. He won't be killing anybody else.

shot in Gastonia, aka the Gashouse unofficially. Officially the city decided to start going by "G-Town" for some reason

interesting place

Hopefully the Officer is OK and the Murdering Assaholla took a good 5.56 to the Forehead.

Yeah I got the news of the shooting from Fox News when it first happened. They said that the officer died while it was still breaking news. Damn Shepard Smith.
