Horry County police have arrested a third suspect for the murder of Jose Gutierez, 20, of Myrtle Beach that occurred on June 8.

Sgt. Robert Kegler with Horry County Police said Charles Johnson was located by U.S. Marshals at a hotel on Ocean Blvd. and 11th Avenue South in Myrtle Beach on Tuesday. 

Shelton Lathal Butler Jr., 21, and Donavon Curtis Johnson, 19, both of Conway, were involved in the shooting in front of a home on Ron McNair Boulevard near the Highway 31 overpass around 8:30 p.m. Friday.

The person who called 9-1-1 said a man was shot and several women took the man from the scene in a vehicle, according to an incident report.

The officer who first arrived on scene found fresh blood, a cell phone, and a sneaker on the street.

A witness in a nearby house told police she heard a shot and her grandson came in the house crying that someone had been hurt. She said she later learned the person who was shot was her daughter's boyfriend, Gutierez.
