I have had several people indicate that FATS is where the assault took place, that is not the case, the incident was on the Modoc trail. Just wanted to make sure that is clear.

I think the editor of Edgefield Daily.com read the post on our site and took it from there based on his own limited knowledge of local trails.
He doesn't know that there is a trail called Stevens Creek, he just knows that Steven's Creek flows (somewhat) near FATS and wrote what he pictured in his head. He asked me in an email if the incident took place near Fury's Ferry Landing. I told him that the incident actually took place at a different trail along hwy 23 that connects Modoc to Edgefield. Not sure why he didn't correct the story.
FWIW, Stevens Creek flows at the bottom of the gravel roads many folks ride in the area called Buzzard's Chute or Butter. If we could get across Stevens Creek in this location, it would be a fairly short ride to the Modoc Trail. Fairly short being about 10 miles. Back in the days of riding long thru the forest, I always wanted to leave a small boat here to get across. Never did that.

Thanks for clarifying Bill, I think there are a lot of people who also don't know that Modoc/Stevens Creek is actually the same trail>> Modoc/Stevens Creek Trail

That's the Stevens Creek Heritage Preserve. Foot trails only - no biking.
