Quadarius Holloman, 19, Identified After Fatal Shooting in Colerain, North Carolina; Bertie County Homicide Investigation Underway
Quadarius Holloman, 19, of Edenton, has been identified as the victim of a fatal shooting in Colerain, North Carolina, as authorities investigate the case as a homicide.
Deputies were called around 3:51 p.m. Wednesday after receiving a report of a person lying on the ground and not breathing near Nowell Farm Road and Meadow Road.
A deputy arriving minutes later found Holloman deceased at the scene with apparent gunshot wounds. His next of kin has been notified.
The Bertie County Sheriff’s Office, with assistance from the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation, is conducting interviews and following up on leads to determine what happened and identify anyone who may have information.
Authorities are also warning the public about a photograph of Holloman circulating on social media. The sheriff’s office is asking people not to share or repost the image, saying material containing the photograph could potentially be seized as evidence as investigators work to preserve information related to the case.
Anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious around the time of the shooting is urged to contact the Bertie County Sheriff’s Office at 252-794-5330.
