SUMMARY: A significant development has occurred in a series of connected roadway shootings. Police arrested a suspect in a neighborhood near Tryon Road, following an intense scene with multiple officers, SWAT teams, and flashbangs. As officers investigated a home, it was reported that there are 12 victims associated with the shootings. Earlier, police had been hesitant to disclose details about the incidents, which involved random shots hitting vehicles. A young man was seen being taken into custody without resistance. Authorities aim to reassure the community amid ongoing safety concerns as they gather more information on the situation.

Raleigh police and SWAT teams on Thursday afternoon were blocking a Raleigh neighborhood, searching for the shooter after a series of shots fired into vehicles this week.

The most recent shooting occurred Thursday morning, when a single gunshot was fired into a driver’s car door close to North Carolina State University, according to Raleigh police, who have not linked Thursday’s incident with six other shootings in the area this week.

SUMMARY: Jurors in the trial of a Durham man charged with the death of a Home Depot worker have entered their third day of deliberations without reaching a verdict. The case centers on the death of 82-year-old Gary Razer, who was shoved during a shoplifting incident. The jury is considering charges of first-degree murder, second-degree murder, or involuntary manslaughter, with penalties ranging from life imprisonment to over a year in prison. The defendant, McMillan, did not testify, and no witnesses were called by the defense. The jury has asked for clarification on several points, including a video and medical records.

Terry McMillian Jr. faces life in prison if convicted of the death of Home Depot worker Gary Rasor after shoving him in October 2022.
