Traveon Sessoms Bullock was 17 when he was shot and killed on March 21, 2017, in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Police were called just before 10 p.m. to the 700 block of Powell Drive and found Bullock in a yard with wounds from an assault. He was taken to a hospital and later died while being moved to a second hospital.

Two people were arrested after a traffic stop. Leo Isham Kearney, 26, a former Rocky Mount police officer whose employment ended in September 2015, was initially charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury with intent to kill; that charge was upgraded to first-degree murder after Bullock died. Dexter Jamal Williams, 19, was charged with accessory after the fact.
