MURDER: The Blue Ridge Savings Bank

On May 16, 2003, a silent alarm was triggered inside Blue Ridge Savings Bank in Greer, South Carolina. When officers arrived just minutes later, they found the bank empty and the cash drawer cleared out.

In a small utility room at the back of the building, they made a devastating discovery. Head teller Sylvia Holtzclaw, along with customers Dr. Eb Barnes and his wife Maggie Barnes, had all been shot and killed.

Surveillance footage from inside the bank was missing. Grainy video from nearby gas stations showed a red car speeding away from the area, but investigators were never able to identify the driver. 

More than 20 years later, the triple homicide at Blue Ridge Savings Bank remains unsolved, and detectives are still searching for the person or people responsible.

If you have any information, please contact the FBI Office in Greenville, South Carolina at (803) 551-4200 or the Greer Police Department at (864) 848-2151.
