Myrtle Beach, SC - Two Sumter women arrested last week following an officer-involved shooting incident and police chase after allegedly shoplifting at a Wal-Mart were also involved in shoplifting at a North Myrtle Beach Wal-Mart the same morning as the chase, reports show. Horry County police were called about 10:30 a.m. Nov. 10 to the Wal-Mart on Beaver Run Boulevard off S.C. 544 for a shoplifting incident, but when police approached Laquandra D. Borden, 25, of Sumter, she fled the scene, trapping an officer in her moving car in the process, authorities said.

Borden ignored pleas from police to stop, and another officer there who feared for the trapped policeman shot Borden in the arm, police said. Borden temporarily slowed enough for the officer to free himself, and he suffered only minor injuries.
