McCORMICK, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) - McCormick County Sheriff Clarke Stearns received a check for $553,000 presented by state Sen. Shane Massey and Rep. Daniel Gibson.

All proceeds will go toward law enforcement equipment for the sheriff’s office.

The presentation was at a legislative luncheon sponsored by the McCormick County Chamber of Commerce.

“Hats off to Sheriff Clarke Stearns for working hard for the citizens of McCormick County and recognizing the agency has equipment needs (in-vehicle cameras), and the only way to advance the agency is to seek alternative funding sources,” the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post.
