COLUMBIA - One man is dead and his former brother-in-law is in custody after a shooting Sunday evening at McDonald's.

32-year-old Jeremy Bohannon of Rocheport was shot at the McDonald's on Clark Lane. He was taken to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead. 37-year-old William Clinch of Hallsville was detained and charged with 1st Degree Murder and Armed Criminal Action.

The Columbia Police Department says family members claim the two had a long standing feud. Police believe Clinch waited for Bohannon to arrive before shooting him.

Clinch was reportedly chasing Bohannon in the parking lot and because the shooting happened right at dinner time, there were several witnesses inside and outside the restaurant.

"They were just amazed that it was in fact happening. Some said they weren't sure it was real, and some said it was just amazing that a man was being pursued on foot being shot at," said Columbia Police Captain Brad Nelson.

"My son called me around five, he works in there. Saying that someone rolled up into the parking lot and started shooting. That he was scared and wanted to come home," said Terry Murphy, whose 15-year-old son works at McDonald's.

Police questioned witnesses including McDonald's employees inside the restaurant for more than three hours. The restaurant was closed for the night.

An autopsy is scheduled for Monday, September 3.
