A man wanted for a drive by shooting in Latta has been arrested, and police say it was only after NewsChannel 15 aired his picture on our 11pm newscast Thursday night.

The Latta Police Department, Dillon County Sheriff's Office, SLED, and the Myrtle Beach Police Department worked together on the tips called in after the picture of Christopher Kollock aired.

Late Friday, Kollock was arrested for Attempted Murder for the drive by shooting in which a man dodged four bullets. It happened Thursday morning on Mauldin Street, which is off of Main Street.
