Lexington County deputies are searching for a man who fatally shot a child Tuesday morning.

Mason Hanahan, 8, was killed during a reported home invasion in the 100 block of Cedar Vale Drive in Lexington.

Investigators are seeking community tips related to the identity of a man who drove away from the Cedar Vale Drive scene after shots were fired.

Detectives have recovered evidence indicating the man might have been shot in an exchange of gunfire with the man who lives in the home.

That man also suffered a gunshot wound that is not thought to be life-threatening.

Detectives have no description of the man they’re looking for because witnesses said he was masked while inside the house, according to Koon.
