Pendleton High School    Student was in full camouflage gear


(10-18-15)  ANDERSON COUNTY, S.C. —The Anderson County coroner on Friday identified the teenager who was shot to death by her foster father while hunting.


Coroner Greg Shore said Amanda Daniele Foster, 17, died of a gunshot wound. He said the bullet entered her back and exited through her left chest.

Foster attended Pendleton High School and had been living with her foster parents for more than two years, according to Shore. Foster had a younger foster brother, who also lived at the home, Shore said.

Deputies were dispatched to the woods behind Foster's home on Dalrymple Road and Harris Bridge Road just before 7 p.m., Shore said.

Foster was transported to AnMed Health, where she was pronounced dead, Shore said.
