Ontario Shukur Redfern, a 25-year-old African American man, was shot to death and found at an apartment complex on Avebury Drive in Charlotte, North Carolina, on August 5, 2022. He was discovered around 2 a.m. and was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Redfern had been released from incarceration in January 2022 and his mother, Teresa Redfern, died in April 2022. The investigation produced arrests: on March 7, 2023, police charged 21-year-old Zion Brown with murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and charged 25-year-old Kenneth Cathcart with felony accessory after the fact to murder. The case remains active and police are asking for tips.

If anyone has information about Ontario Redfern’s death or about the people involved, please share what you know with investigators.
