Noah DeRyan Feaster, a 23-year-old African American man, was killed in Charlotte, North Carolina, on February 19, 2021. Officers from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department responded about 3 a.m. to reports of shots fired at a residence on Berryhill Road in West Charlotte and found Feaster with a fatal gunshot wound; he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting arose from a dispute between Feaster and another individual. The CMPD identified 25-year-old Deshawn Williamson as a suspect; Williamson was arrested on June 22, 2021, and charged with first-degree murder and possession of a firearm by a felon. Feaster’s funeral was held February 26, 2021, at King’s Funeral Home in Charlotte.

Anyone who has information about the shooting or the events leading up to it is asked to come forward.
