BY JIM HILLEY [email protected]

Andrew Tiller, an 18-year-old Sumter resident, is accused of shooting and seri- ously injuring two men Sept. 8 near Har- mony Court Apartments in what police said was a scheme to frame one of Til- ler’s acquaintances. Tiller was arrested later that weekend and was charged with two counts of at- tempted murder, two counts of attempted armed robbery and one count of possession of a weapon during a violent crime. By Monday, Tiller was re- leased on bond, having been ordered to pay a $37,500 TILLER surety bond and to wear an ankle monitor as conditions for his release. That seemingly quick exit from custo- dy has some questioning why Magistrate Judge Larry Blanding allowed Tiller to bond out, despite the serious nature of the charges. Blanding has not responded to requests for comment.

DeWitt said most of the corn has been harvested, and soybeans and cotton and See more photos from Grandparents Day SEE FARMERS, PAGE A11 at Pocalla Springs Elementary on page A6.

Medicare is revealing the cards' new design on Thursday as the govern- ment gears up for a massive transition that will involve coordination with 58 million beneficiaries and their family members, plus hospitals, doctors, in- THE ASSOCIATED PRESS surance companies, pharmacies and This image provided by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services shows what the new Medicare card, right, will look like, com- state governments. pared to the current one at left.

PREP FOOTBALL Barons look to build on Moving forward win over OP

BY TREVOR ZION BAUKNIGHT [email protected]

With the Wilson Hall varsity football team set to line up across from SCISA 3A foe Car- dinal Newman tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Spencer Field, head coach Adam Jarecki said he liked what he saw in last week’s 31-21 victory over Or- angeburg Prep and is looking forward to his team continuing to progress. “It’s another 3A test,” said Jar- ecki, whose Bar- ons improved to JARECKI 2-1 with the hard- fought victory. “I’m excited about the way we played last week. I felt like we capitalized on some things and played well for four quarters last week, so we just kind of want to build on that. The Cardinals are 2-2 with both losses coming in-confer- ence against Orangeburg Prep and Laurence Manning. Wil- son Hall stands at 1-1 in con- ference play, with their lone loss coming on the road against Porter-Gaud in Charleston. Jarecki said all games are important in the single-conference 3A ranks, but the Barons’ approach is one game at a time.
