ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) -- A man has died after being stabbed in the chest at an apartment in Orangeburg.

The Times and Democrat of Orangeburg reported a woman was in custody in what police are calling a domestic dispute.

Orangeburg County Deputy Coroner Sean Fogle said 23-year-old Cameron Hanton died Tuesday morning. An autopsy was scheduled Wednesday to determine the cause of death.

No charges have been filed.

Police were called to the home shortly before 9 a.m. Tuesday after getting a report of a domestic dispute. Officers found Hanton on the kitchen floor with a knife beside him.

It's unclear what started the dispute.
