The Horry County Police continue to investigate a homicide in Little River after a caller reported finding a body in front of a business in the 1400 block of U.S. 17 about 9:30 p.m. Saturday.
Horry County Coroner Robert Edge Jr. said Johnny Ray Caulder, 51, of Little River, died after someone cut his throat.
County police Lt. Kevin Duke said two people are in custody:
John Lee Monroe Scott, 35, of Loris, is charged with one count of murder and one count of armed robbery.
Jeffrey Michael Landacre, 20, of Little River, is charged with accessory to murder, Duke said.
He said investigators don't believe Caulder was killed where he was found, but detectives haven't yet been able to confirm that.
Duke said investigators worked through the night on the case, and he expects more information will be released today.
