Demone Nesbitt, 23, was fatally shot on May 31, 2017, at the Mitchell Wooten Court housing complex in Kinston, North Carolina. He died en route to Vidant Medical Center in Greenville. The shooting was one of two that night; 18-year-old Donald Girtley Jr. was also killed and authorities characterized the incident as a double homicide.
Police arrested a 15-year-old male and charged him with the murders of both Nesbitt and Girtley; his name has not been released because of his age. Investigators say the shooting was not random, though Nesbitt may have been an unintended target. An 18-year-old, Nicholas Xavier Edwards, was charged with felony obstruction of justice in connection with the case.
The slayings form part of a wider inquiry that includes multiple shootings in the Goldsboro area over the Memorial Day weekend. Does anyone have information about what happened at Mitchell Wooten Court that night or knew Demone Nesbitt?
