Dontrell RayShawn Powell, 19, was found dead of gunshot wounds on August 26, 2022, at the intersection of Van Ness Avenue and Lombard Avenue in Greenville’s Belvoir community. Deputies from the Pitt County Sheriff’s Office responded around 11:30 a.m. and opened a homicide investigation.

Investigators identified two suspects early in the probe. A juvenile was charged and placed in secured custody soon after the killing; a second suspect, 21-year-old Immanuel Jaylean Turner of Greenville, was arrested on August 28, 2022, and charged with an open count of murder. Authorities said the investigation remains ongoing and asked anyone who was in the area or has information to contact detectives.

Powell’s family held a viewing on September 2 and a memorial service on September 3, 2022, and he was buried in Roberson’s Family Cemetery in Jamesville.

If anyone has information about the shooting or was in the Belvoir area that morning, can you share what you saw?
