Multiple media outlets reported that 23-year-old Raymond Groves was arrested at a house in Anderson.
Groves is charged with murder in the shooting death of James "Pete" Wells at an Anderson restaurant in 2005, where he had gone to pick up some takeout food.
Anderson County Sheriff John Skipper said Tuesday that forensic evidence analyzed by the State Law Enforcement Division linked Groves to the shooting.
Skipper says someone may be eligible for $40,000 in reward money offered for information about the case. He did not elaborate. The sheriff says another arrest is possible.
It was unclear if Groves had an attorney. He is in the Anderson County jail, awaiting a hearing.
