Two Connelly Springs men were arrested in Lincoln County last Friday following a reported argument involving a shot being fired into an occupied vehicle.

30-year-old Christopher Lee Saylor of Kinglet Road was charged with discharging a weapon into an occupied moving vehicle; while 20-year-old Christian Thomas Carpenter of Rocky Ridge Road was charged with assault causing serious bodily injury.

Reports say Lincoln officers located a male subject, Rhyan Keith Arnett of Lawndale with head and facial injuries in a parking lot along NC Highway 18.

Deputies determined that individuals inside two separate vehicles had arrived at the parking lot where the altercation took place.

One of the vehicles reportedly fled the scene and was located at a Burke County residence by Lincoln and Burke deputies.

Saylor and Carpenter were both jailed, and placed under a 10-thousand dollar secured bond each.
