The two arrested were Hunter Glass, 18 and Vernon Brown, 20. Claiborne the investigation has not reveled if their motive was revenge or some type of vendetta.

“Just appears at this point that we had a couple of youngsters that probably had too much to drink and made a bad decision. We don’t have anything to indicate if anyone else was involved,” said Claiborne.
