Nylah Vereen, a 20-year-old African American woman, was shot dead on August 26, 2018, at the Dogwood Mobile Home Park on N.C. 211 East in Lumberton, North Carolina. Deputies responding to reports of two people shot at about 6:30 p.m. found Vereen inside the home she shared with her boyfriend, Rockeiem Young, who was wounded in the hand and leg. Vereen died of a gunshot wound to the head.

A neighbor said an argument began outside, continued inside the residence, and escalated into multiple gunshots; the neighbor also reported that Vereen’s younger siblings witnessed the shooting. Authorities identified neighbor Geronimo Jones, 22, as the primary suspect; he turned himself in on September 27, 2018, and was charged with first-degree murder and related offenses. Jones’s mother, Judy Kay Lowery, 40, also turned herself in on August 29, 2018, and faced similar charges.

Does anyone have information about the events at Dogwood Mobile Home Park that evening or about Nylah’s life in Lumberton?
