GREER, S.C. (AP) -- Wednesday marks nine years since two customers and a teller were gunned down at a bank in Greer.
The May 16, 2003, killings at the Blue Ridge Savings Bank remain unsolved
Authorities answering a panic alarm found 56-year-old teller Sylvia Holtzclaw and 60-year-old Eb Barnes and his 58-year-old wife Maggie Barnes dead in a utility room in the back of the bank, which was inside a trailer on a road near Interstate 85 in Greer.
Investigators checked for a link between the robbery and a man who killed himself during a 2005 police chase in Georgia. Authorities say Emmerson Wright was wanted for a string of burglaries and robberies when he died and was driving a car similar to a model seen at the Greer bank when the robbery happened.
