**The short version**

- A deputy working security at a gun show in South Carolina fatally shot a man who fired at him on Saturday.
- The deputy was taken into surgery and was in stable condition.
- The gun show's organisers cancelled Sunday's session.
- Loaded weapons are banned at the show except for on-duty police officers, and all weapons must have their actions secured.

A deputy working security at a gun show in South Carolina fatally shot a man who had fired at him on Saturday, authorities said. The Lexington County deputy was taken into surgery and was in stable condition, according to the sheriff’s office. The shooting occurred Saturday afternoon at the South Carolina Arms Collector Association's gun and knife show in Columbia. The association cancelled Sunday’s session.

## Disagreement on the location

The shooting happened at the Jamil Temple, according to CTV News. Hoodline and WSPA also mention the Jamil Temple as the location. However, the Associated Press, cited by CTV News, states the shooting occurred at the Jamil Temple. The Washington Times and dailymail.com do not specify the location beyond Columbia, South Carolina.

## What the coverage left out

None of the 28 digests mention the specific rules for the gun show regarding loaded weapons and securing actions, which were detailed in the full report from CTV News.

## Who covered it

Shares of the 102 covering outlets with a published leaning rating:

- Left: 42% (43)
- Centre: 51% (52)
- Right: 7% (7)

4 of 106 covering outlets carried no usable leaning rating and were excluded from those percentages. Coverage measured 2026-11-15T14:58:07.833Z.

**Coverage watch:** developing. Checked 7 times; 0 checks found a material change. Most recently checked 2026-11-15T16:30:22.161Z.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- Eight left-rated reports led with the fact that a deputy working security at a gun show fatally shot a customer who had shot him. These reports included digests from CNN, Rocky Mountain Outlook, Barrie Today, Orillia Matters, Collingwood Today, Newmarket Today, Thorold Today, and Elora Fergus Today. All these digests stated that authorities confirmed the shooting. The digests from Barrie Today, Orillia Matters, Collingwood Today, Newmarket Today, Thorold Today, and Elora Fergus Today also noted that the deputy was taken into surgery and was in stable condition.

### Centre

- Nine centre-rated reports focused on the deputy fatally shooting a customer who had shot him. These reports included digests from WLTX, LancasterOnline, Santa Maria Times, WANE-TV, CP24, WSPA, and WRAL News. WLTX reported that the deputy returned fire and killed the shooter. WANE-TV mentioned that the sheriff’s office did not release additional information about the shooting at the Jamil Temple. WSPA stated that a shooting at an event left one dead and a deputy injured, with officials saying a patron shot at a deputy. The digests from WLTX and WSPA also noted that the association holding the show cancelled Sunday’s session.

### Right

- Seven right-rated reports led with the deputy fatally shooting a gun show patron who fired a weapon at him. These reports included digests from dailymail.com, Washington Times, Jonesboro Sun, wtma.com, El Vocero de Puerto Rico, and FITSNews. The digests from dailymail.com and Washington Times stated that authorities confirmed the shooting. The digest from wtma.com reported that the shooting left a suspect dead and a deputy wounded, and that the deputy was stable after surgery. FITSNews mentioned that the SLED was investigating the incident at Jamil Shrine Temple.

**Provisional coverage gap:** right. The watch is not closed, so this is not yet a settled blindspot finding.
