In the winter of 2022, the life of Marvin L. 'Sal' Swington, a 35-year-old male, was tragically cut short in McComb, Mississippi. On the evening of January 12th, McComb police were called to a shooting at Lucky's Quick Stop on Summit Street. Upon arrival, they discovered that Swington had been shot but was no longer at the location.
