MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) - Authorities say a 32-year-old man has been shot to death by police officers in Myrtle Beach.

Police said the shooting happened around 2 a.m. Saturday and the officers were not injured.

The Horry County Coroner’s Office identified the dead man as 32-year-old Matthew Graham.



No other details about the shooting were released. The State Law Enforcement Division is investigating.

Steve Banks told The Sun News that the man who was shot stole a mountain bike from his garage about three hours before the shooting and was pedaling the bike down the street being chased by police cars with their lights on just before he heard several shots fired.
