Leonicio Ramos Guerrero, a 63-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed on January 2, 2021, at a home on Little Gap Road in Pine-swamp, North Carolina.

Police say they tracked the vehicle description to locate the suspect, identified as Reginald Steve Elledge, 45, of Fleetwood, North Carolina. Elledge was found in the parking lot of a Lowe’s Home Improvement in West Jefferson, taken into custody without incident, transported to the Ashe County Sheriff’s Office for questioning, and later arrested on a homicide charge. He is being held without bond in the Ashe County Detention Center.

The investigation attributes the shooting to Elledge and charges related to the homicide have been filed. Does anyone have information about Guerrero, his movements that day, or the white Ford Explorer Sport Trac seen near Little Gap Road?
