Chauncy Kassim Montague, 35, was found in the front yard of his home in Zebulon, North Carolina, on October 12, 2021, suffering multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead upon arrival.

The investigation identified an argument with his roommate, Travis Denawn Jordan, 32, as preceding the shooting. Witnesses named Jordan as the suspect; police say Jordan contacted 911 to give his location and was then apprehended by Raleigh officers. He was charged with murder and held in the Wake County Detention Center without bond.

The case remains a recent and painful loss for Montague’s family and the Zebulon community. If anyone witnessed the altercation or has information about the events leading up to the shooting, please come forward.
