According to police, Summers is accused of robbing a 92-year-old woman during the incident.

Investigators are now turning to the public as they continue working to find him. Police said Summers is known to spend time in the Broad River Road area of Columbia, and he also has connections to Orangeburg County.

Those areas are now part of the department’s appeal for information, as officers ask anyone who may have seen him or knows where he is to come forward.

Authorities also believe Summers may be traveling in a gray 2015 Nissan Altima with South Carolina tag 669BVD. Police said the vehicle is registered to one of his associates, and they are asking the public to remain alert for both Summers and the car.

The case has drawn serious attention because of the age of the victim and the nature of the allegations.

A robbery involving a 92-year-old woman has added urgency to the search, with police making clear that they want Summers located as soon as possible.

The Columbia Police Department strongly encourages Summers to turn himself in immediately.

Anyone with information about his whereabouts is urged to contact the Columbia Police Department at 803-545-3500. People who prefer to remain anonymous can submit tips through Crime Stoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.

For investigators, even a small detail could matter. A possible sighting, information about the Nissan Altima, or knowledge of where Summers has recently been staying may help police move the case forward.

Until he is found, Columbia authorities are asking the community to stay watchful and report anything that could assist in locating him.
