Their house tells the story of people who left in a hurry.
Halloween cards from grandparents hang on the refrigerator. A half-empty canister of animal crackers sits on the kitchen counter. Toiletries clutter the bathroom sink.
William and Jennifer Griffor will rely on friends to sell their family’s remaining belongings — toy cars, stuffed animals, an old-fashioned bread box — at a yard sale this weekend.
The person who fired a shotgun into their West Ashley house on Oct. 25, fatally wounding 5-year-old Allison Griffor as she slept in her bed, remains at large.
Charleston police on Monday night arrested three men in connection with an armed robbery involving a shotgun at the Pierpont Bar around the corner from the Griffors’ house, but investigators have not confirmed any link between the shooting and the robbery or other recent crimes in the area.
