Introduction
North Carolina has witnessed a disturbing number of shootings at apartment complexes, parking garages, and other public-access spaces in 2024 and 2025. These incidents range from campus-area apartment shootings to violence in residential parking lots, reflecting a broader trend of rising gun violence. According to data from the Gun Violence Archive, North Carolina experienced 15 mass shooting events (incidents with four or more people shot) in 2024 and at least 4 in the first half of 2025. Beyond those mass incidents, dozens of other shootings – fatal and non-fatal – have occurred on residential and commercial properties across the state, often leaving residents and bystanders injured or dead.
This report summarizes all publicly reported shootings in North Carolina at apartment complexes, parking facilities, and similar venues during 2024–2025, and discusses what property owners can do to prevent such tragedies, how a lawyer can help victims, and why our firm is uniquely suited to handle these negligent security cases. Each incident is backed by law enforcement reports or media coverage, and the article concludes with a legal-educational perspective on premises liability, blended with a persuasive call to action for those seeking legal assistance.
Notable Shootings in 2024
Several high-profile shootings occurred at North Carolina apartment complexes and related locations in 2024, underscoring the urgency of addressing security. All incidents listed below were widely reported by law enforcement and media:
Feb 7 & Mar 2, 2024 (Pembroke, NC):
Two separate shootings struck the area near the University of North Carolina at Pembroke (UNCP) in early 2024. On February 7, a 19-year-old former UNCP student was shot and killed near off-campus student apartments (University Courtyard Apartments). A week later, police arrested a suspect on firearm charges related to that incident. Then on March 2, a shooting near
The Commons
apartment complex (just minutes from campus) left one UNCP student dead and two others injured.
May 7, 2024 (Durham – Duke Manor Apartments):
A quadruple shooting occurred at the Duke Manor Apartments in Durham. Four people were shot, including 27-year-old Nelson Mendez-Vasquez, who died of his injuries. Three others were wounded, one critically. Police arrested a 29-year-old suspect, Yeltsin Cinto Orozco, and charged him with first-degree murder. This incident was part of a broader spike in Durham gun violence – by early May 2024, over 66 people had already been shot in Durham that year, an increase compared to 2023.
May 9, 2024 (Greensboro – Campus Crossing Apartments):
In Greensboro, a shooting at an apartment complex on Spring Garden Street (popular with college students) claimed the life of 20-year-old Davion Jessup, a junior at North Carolina A&T State University. Jessup was found unresponsive in an apartment breezeway late on August 22, 2024, and pronounced dead at the scene. (His death was reported by media on August 23.) It was Greensboro’s 26th homicide of the year.
Oct 5, 2024 (Laurinburg, NC – Greenfield Apartments):
A 17-year-old, Kevonte McBryde, was shot and killed around 6 p.m. at a Laurinburg apartment complex, and another 15-year-old was injured in the same incident. In this case, the violence involved very young suspects: three juveniles (ages 15–16) were taken into custody in connection with the shooting. Police revealed that one injured teen (age 15) was later charged with first-degree murder and robbery, while two other juvenile suspects faced robbery and conspiracy charges.
Late Nov 2024 (Garner, NC – Comet Garner Apartments):
In late November, a deadly shooting took place at an apartment complex in Garner, a suburb of Raleigh. While details in media reports were initially sparse, authorities confirmed that a murder charge was filed against a suspect in the fatal shooting at the Comet Garner Apartments on Isner Lane.
Nov 10, 2024 (Sanford, NC – Ryder Downs Apartments):
In Sanford, a 17-year-old boy was found shot dead late at night in the parking lot of the Ryder Downs apartment complex. Police responding to reports of gunfire around 11 p.m. discovered the teenager suffering from a gunshot wound; he died at the scene. T
Dec 21, 2024 (Cary, NC – Fenton Parking Deck):
In a high-profile case in Cary’s new Fenton shopping district, a shooting in a parking garage left one person dead. Police found 23-year-old Cory Edward McNeill fatally shot inside a car on the Green Level parking deck at Fenton. The suspected shooter, 24-year-old Malik Emaje Scott-McClarin, turned himself in shortly afterward and was arrested. Notably, the suspect was an employee of the security company contracted to patrol Fenton’s property. Authorities stated that the victim and suspect knew each other, and the shooting – though occurring in a public garage – was not a random act of violence against the public.
Throughout 2024, these and other incidents (including additional shootings in cities like Charlotte and Winston-Salem) made headlines. Each case varied in circumstances – some were apparently targeted or domestic disputes, while others involved stray bullets and bystanders – but all occurred in locations where people normally assume they are safe: home complexes, campus housing, parking areas, or shopping centers. Unfortunately, the pattern of violence continued into 2025.
Continued Shootings in 2025
Far from abating, shootings at apartments and other public-access sites persisted in 2025. Below is a summary of notable 2025 incidents across North Carolina (from January through mid-2025), again illustrating the widespread nature of the problem:
Jan 1, 2025 (Raleigh – Downtown Parking Garage):
Just after New Year’s Day, a shooting took place in a parking garage in downtown Raleigh near a popular children’s museum. A 45-year-old victim, Damien Devon Smith, was shot and later died of his injuries. Within days, Raleigh police arrested a 20-year-old suspect, Solomon Elijah Campbell, and charged him with Smith’s murder. The crime scene was a city-owned parking deck on South Wilmington Street (across from Marbles Kids Museum).
Mar 19, 2025 (Charlotte – University City Apartments):
In Charlotte’s University City area (near UNC Charlotte), police responded to a homicide in the parking lot
of the Mallard Green apartment complex on Mary Alexander Road. Around 2 p.m. on a Wednesday, officers found a man shot to death in the parking lot, with guns found on the ground nearby.
May 15, 2025 (Charlotte – Northcross Townhomes on Griers Grove Rd):
A mass shooting unfolded at a townhome-style apartment complex in north Charlotte. Around 9 p.m., multiple people opened fire, and Charlotte police found four gunshot victims at the scene on Griers Grove Road. Three victims were transported by Medic with serious injuries (two of them with life-threatening wounds), and a fourth wounded person later showed up at a hospital on their own. The gunfire also sprayed the parking area, striking at least six vehicles and causing an estimated $36,000 in property damage.
June 9, 2025 (Winston-Salem – Rolling Hills Apartments):
A shoot-out between two groups at a Winston-Salem apartment complex turned deadly for an uninvolved resident. Around 9:20 p.m., gunfire broke out across the parking lot of the Rolling Hills Apartments on Old Greensboro Road. In the exchange of bullets, a 50-year-old woman named Pariss Tucker Baines – who was standing outside her apartment – was struck and killed at the scene, apparently by a stray bullet. Another woman inside a different apartment was also hit by a stray bullet and seriously injured. Police believe the victims were not targeted and were caught in the crossfire between two groups shooting at each other.
Aug 8, 2025 (Cary, NC – Windsor at Tryon Village Apartments):
In Cary, what police labeled an “isolated domestic incident” resulted in two deaths at an upscale apartment complex. Officers responding around 3:45 p.m. found 55-year-old Majda Massri and her estranged husband, 60-year-old Abderrahman “Abdul” Rajab, shot to death inside an apartment. Investigators determined the shooting was a domestic murder-suicide – a personal dispute between the couple – and assured the public there was no ongoing threat in the otherwise quiet community.
Aug 12, 2025 (Durham – Camden Pointe Apartments):
In Durham, an afternoon shooting at the Camden Pointe Apartments left two young people dead. Police arriving just after 3 p.m. found 23-year-old Damien Tinsley dead at the scene and 21-year-old London T. Powers critically injured in an apartment parking area. Ms. Powers, who was a junior at North Carolina Central University (NCCU), died of her wounds a day later at the hospital. Powers was an honors student preparing for a career in social work, according to an NCCU statement mourning her loss.
Aug 30, 2025 (Goldsboro – West Haven Apartments area):
Another shooting took place at an apartment complex in Goldsboro. Around 7 p.m., police responded to reports of shots fired at Dupont Circle, in the vicinity of the West Haven Apartments. Shortly afterward, a 23-year-old male victim arrived at a local hospital with serious (but fortunately non-life-threatening) gunshot injuries. He was later transferred to another medical facility for further treatment and was expected to recover.
Aug 31, 2025 (Raleigh – East Davie Street Apartments):
In downtown Raleigh, a Sunday morning shooting occurred at an apartment complex on E. Davie Street. Police found a man who had been shot in the leg; thankfully, his wound was not life-threatening, and he was expected to recover. Later that day, officers arrested a 35-year-old suspect, Leslie Maurice Buford of Carrboro, charging him with assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, possession of a stolen firearm, and drug offenses related to the incident.
These incidents from 2025 – spanning the Triangle, Triad, and Charlotte regions – illustrate that apartment complexes and public-access areas have continued to be flashpoints for gun violence. Whether the cause is domestic dispute, gang-related conflict, robbery, or random altercation, the common thread is that security measures on these properties were unable to prevent a shooting from occurring. Each report of violence at an apartment complex often leads residents to ask: Could this have been prevented?
How Property Owners and Managers Can Prevent Such Shootings
Property owners and managers of apartments, condos, parking structures, and shopping centers have a legal duty to provide a reasonably safe environment for residents and visitors. While not every crime can be foreseen or stopped, there are well-known security practices that significantly reduce the risk of violent incidents like shootings. In reviewing the 2024–2025 shootings, certain preventable factors emerge repeatedly – things that, if addressed, might have deterred or minimized these tragedies. Key measures property owners should implement include:
Adequate Lighting:
Poor or insufficient lighting is a common issue that contributes to crime. In many apartment shootings, dimly lit parking lots or hallways provided cover for shooters. Bright lighting in stairwells, parking areas, and entryways makes it harder for criminals to hide and can deter violent acts. As one legal analysis noted, when hallways, parking lots, and other common areas are inadequately lit, it creates an environment where violent crimes are more likely to occur. Landlords should promptly fix broken lights and ensure all common areas are well-illuminated at night. Good lighting is a simple, effective first line of defense.
Surveillance Cameras:
Functioning security cameras serve both as a deterrent and as crucial evidence collectors. Complexes without camera coverage – or with broken/unmonitored cameras – effectively invite trouble. Many of the cited shootings above had no immediate suspects; in such cases, video footage can be vital in identifying perpetrators. Conversely, the knowledge that a property is under surveillance can discourage would-be criminals. Property managers should install cameras covering entrances, parking areas, and other high-traffic zones, and ensure those cameras are actively monitored and maintained. Failure to install or maintain surveillance (when feasible) is considered a sign of inadequate security. In short, every apartment building and garage in 2025 should have “eyes” on it.
Controlled Access to Entries:
A number of shootings involved outsiders or unauthorized individuals coming onto the property (or easily fleeing afterward). Owners must secure entry points to prevent easy access by non-residents. This means having gated entrances that require keycards or codes, secured lobby doors, and – for parking garages – perhaps attendants or key access after hours. If a complex has open access (no fences or gates), management should consider added barriers or security checks. At minimum, exterior doors should remain locked, and features like intercom systems or security personnel can help vet who comes in.
Neglecting to secure entrances is a form of negligence that can directly contribute to violent intruders entering the premises.
On-Site Security Personnel:
Especially in larger apartment complexes or those in higher-crime areas, the presence of security guards or patrols can deter shootings. A trained security officer can monitor for suspicious activity, respond quickly at the first sign of trouble, and generally increase the perception of safety. Several incidents described above involved chaos or delayed police response; on-site security might have reduced the danger or even prevented the violence from escalating. Property owners who fail to provide any security patrols despite known risks may be found negligent if a crime occurs. Even an unarmed guard who regularly walks the grounds (or a hired off-duty police officer on weekends) can make a big difference in discouraging loitering, gang activity, or armed confrontations on the property.
Tenant Screening and Enforcement:
It’s unfortunate, but some apartment shootings are perpetrated by the residents themselves or their guests. Thorough background checks on tenants can at least flag individuals with violent criminal histories or prior evictions for criminal behavior. While landlords cannot discriminate unlawfully, they are allowed to deny tenancy to those with certain serious convictions that pose a safety risk. Additionally, if an existing tenant is known to engage in illegal activities (e.g. drug dealing, gun possession, violent altercations), the property manager must address it – by warnings or eviction if necessary. Ignoring clear red flags can be deadly. In fact, many apartment shootings are committed by individuals who reside in or frequently visit the complex; thus, thorough tenant screening is essential to maintaining a safe environment. Maintaining a responsible tenant community is part of a landlord’s security responsibility.
Prompt Maintenance of Safety Equipment:
Property management must take tenant safety complaints seriously. Many crimes are enabled by unaddressed physical issues like broken gate locks, malfunctioning building doors, or overgrown landscaping that creates hiding spots. For instance, if residents report that a security gate has been stuck open or that lights in the parking lot are out, the owner should fix those immediately. Some of the shootings above occurred at complexes with prior histories of crime; a diligent owner would have already upgraded security after earlier incidents. Neglect by property management – such as ignoring reports of gunfire, failing to repair broken locks, or not evicting known violent tenants – demonstrates negligence that can result in tragic consequences. Regular security audits and a culture of responsiveness to tenants’ safety concerns are critical.
Extra Precautions in High-Crime Areas:
For properties located in neighborhoods with higher crime rates, basic measures might not be enough. Extra precautions could include hiring off-duty police officers as security, organizing tenant watch groups, installing alarm systems or emergency call boxes, and working with local law enforcement to increase patrols near the property. Owners should analyze local crime data and adjust their security plan accordingly. For example, an apartment complex that has seen multiple shootings or robberies in its vicinity should treat this as a foreseeable risk – meaning additional lighting, cameras, and guards are not optional, but necessary. Proactively investing in safety can “substantially reduce crime rates in the area” and prevent shootings before they happen.
In summary, many apartment complex shootings are preventable with common-sense security improvements. Proactive measures like adequate lighting, surveillance cameras, secure entryways, vigilant tenant screening, and on-site security can significantly reduce the likelihood of violent incidents. Conversely, property owners who cut corners on safety – whether to save money or out of apathy – place innocent lives in danger. When landlords fail in this duty and a shooting happens as a result, the concept of negligent security comes into play. Victims of these crimes (or their families) may have legal recourse to hold the owner or management accountable for not taking reasonable steps to prevent foreseeable harm.
Legal Recourse: How a Negligent Security Lawyer Can Help
Experiencing a shooting or violent attack at what should be a safe property (like your home complex or a public garage) is traumatizing and often life-altering. Beyond the immediate physical harm, victims face medical bills, lost wages, emotional trauma, and sometimes the loss of a loved one. This is where a negligent security claim comes in – a type of premises liability lawsuit that argues the property owner or manager did not uphold their safety obligations to protect people on the premises. A knowledgeable lawyer can be a crucial ally for victims in these situations. Here’s how an attorney helps in negligent security cases:
Investigation of Security Lapses:
An attorney will thoroughly investigate the circumstances of the shooting and the property’s security history. This can include reviewing police reports, prior incident records at that location, interviewing witnesses and residents, and inspecting the property’s safety features (or lack thereof). Often, patterns emerge – for example, perhaps the complex had a broken gate for months, or multiple assaults had happened there before. By uncovering such facts, a lawyer builds the case that the incident was foreseeable and could have been prevented if the owner had acted responsibly. For instance, if a complex had numerous prior break-ins and the landlord still didn’t fix the locks or add patrols, a subsequent shooting may not be “random” but rather a predictable outcome of that negligence.
Establishing Duty and Breach:
In legal terms, the attorney will demonstrate that the property owner owed a duty of care to provide reasonable security and that they breached this duty. The Langino Law firm’s own Negligent Security
page notes that landlords and businesses “have a legal duty to provide a reasonably safe environment and protect the public from foreseeable criminal activity”. Similarly, legal experts explain that property owners must indeed take basic precautions to deter crime; failing to do so can constitute a breach of duty under premises liability law. A skilled lawyer may bring in security experts to testify on what measures were standard or expected for that type of property. If the owner fell short (for example, no cameras in a high-crime area, or gates left unrepaired despite recent crimes), that can constitute negligence.
Linking Negligence to the Crime:
It’s not enough to show a property was unsafe; the attorney must connect that negligence to the proximate cause of the victim’s injury. In practice, this means arguing that if proper security had been in place, the shooting likely would not have occurred or would have been less likely to result in harm. This often involves a bit of reconstruction: e.g., “Had there been a functioning security gate and an on-duty guard, the assailant could not have so easily driven in and opened fire.” Or, “If the parking garage had surveillance cameras and regular patrols, an armed person brandishing a weapon would have been detected before tragedy struck.” By making this causal link clear, an attorney shows that the owner’s failures substantially contributed to the incident – and therefore the owner (or their insurer) should compensate the victims.
Pursuing Compensation for Damages:
Negligent security lawsuits seek to recover damages for the victims – this includes medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, pain and suffering, lost income, and in fatal cases, funeral costs and the family’s loss of companionship/support. A lawyer will calculate the full extent of the harm (including future losses, like ongoing therapy or permanent disability). These cases often lead to settlements or verdicts in the hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars when severe injury or death is involved. While money cannot undo the trauma, it helps victims rebuild their lives and holds the wrongdoers financially accountable. As the Langino Law website points out, “Recovering from injuries is time-intensive and costly… Families hurt by no fault of their own deserve to be represented by someone who can hold companies accountable and gain rightful compensation”. A successful negligent security claim can provide not just financial relief, but also a sense of justice.
Influencing Change and Future Safety:
Beyond individual compensation, these lawsuits have a broader social benefit: they pressure property owners to improve security going forward. When an apartment complex or business faces a hefty payout due to lax security, it sends a message to other property owners to proactively shore up safety or face similar liability. In fact, one reason to pursue a claim is to force changes that “reduce the possibility of [the crime] happening again”. For example, a legal settlement might include terms that the apartment complex install fencing and cameras or hire security personnel. Many victims take some solace in knowing their lawsuit could spur better security that protects others in the community. As noted on our site, a negligent security case “will not only provide an opportunity to ease your financial burden but also help protect your community so the same thing doesn’t happen to someone else again”. In this way, holding owners accountable has a preventative effect beyond the individual case.
In summary, a negligent security attorney can take a horrific incident – which might otherwise be written off as just a random criminal act – and reframe it as a preventable tragedy that the law can remedy. By investigating, gathering evidence, and advocating in court, the lawyer seeks both justice for the victim and accountability from the property owner. These cases are complex and can be hard-fought (often the defendant will argue the crime was unforeseeable or solely the fault of the criminal), but with the right attorney, victims have a strong voice in the legal system.
