Arrest made in Assault Investigation

The Oconee County Sheriff’s Office reports the arrest of a Greenwood man following an investigation into an assault complaint last month at a student housing complex party. Booked into the Oconee County Detention Center was 19-year-old Evan Clay Keller for assault and battery in the first degree. A warrant alleges Keller shoved and head-butted Tyler William Harvey, causing him to fall on asphalt striking his head. The case centered on an alleged altercation on Sept. 16, during a party at the Pier on West Cherry Road, across Lake Hartwell from Clemson University. Keller was released on a $200,000 surety bond.
