ORANGEBURG (WACH) -- Officials are asking for your help finding the man they say shot a woman in the face over the weekend in Eutawville.

The Orangeburg County Sheriff's Department says the 21-year-old victim was shot in a parking lot while leaving the horse track Sunday night.

Investigators say Marquel Joel Gadson and two others approached the victim's vehicle and took their winnings when the gun Gadson had went of during a struggle.  The bullet fired from the pistol hit the victim in the face.

Officials say Gadson is traveling between Greensboro, NC and the Midlands.

If you have any information that may help locate Gadson, you're asked to call CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
