Authorities arrested one suspect and are searching for another involved in a Wednesday afternoon shooting that left one victim wounded.
Police reported that Raynor Moore, 19, of the 100 block of Spaulding Drive, was arrested Thursday morning and charged with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury with intent to kill. Another unknown suspect involved — described as a dark-skinned black male, about 5 feet, 8 inches tall and wearing all black — remains at large.
Police responded to the 600 block of Walton Circle a little after 4:20 p.m. Darrien Parker, 20, told police he was approached by the two men near his home.
Parker told police he walked into his yard and the two men began firing shots at him. He was shot once and the suspects fled the scene, running on Walton Drive toward Bedford Road. The victim was taken to Nash General Hospital and later was released.
Afterwards, a K-9 track was conducted and ended in Edgecombe Meadows. The case remains under investigation.
Anyone with information about the shooting can call Twin County Crime Stoppers at 977-1111.
