Charleston Police said charges have been dropped against a man they originally thought stabbed a teen outside of a popular nightclub.

Detective said Roland Willis was misidentified as the person who stabbed University of Charleston football player Kevin Clemens, 18.

Now, police are looking for Aris Hairston, the man they believe stabbed Clemens outside of Impulse Nightclub over the weekend.
