On the night of September 14, 2023, deputies with the Harnett County Sheriff’s Office responded to a vehicle crash near 1631 Main Street in Lillington, North Carolina, and found a burgundy Nissan Armada in a field with two men inside, both deceased from apparent gunshot wounds. The victims were identified as 34-year-old Rodriguez Antonio McNeill of Bunnlevel and 28-year-old Deshawn Rico Martin of Angier. A nearby resident’s surveillance camera reportedly captured multiple gunshots followed by the crash, and authorities have said the attack appeared to be targeted.

No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced. The shooting happened near Buies Creek, close to Campbell University, and prompted warnings to remain vigilant even though officials said there was no specific threat to campus. The Harnett County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information to come forward to assist the ongoing investigation.

If anyone knew Rodriguez Antonio McNeill or has information about the shooting or the vehicle, please share what you know with investigators.
