Michael Kyle Reid, 42, of Canton, was shot and killed late the night of February 17, 2025, at a home on North Lake Drive in Cherokee County. Deputies responded about 10:22 p.m. to reports of a shooting and found Reid unresponsive in the carport; Cherokee Fire and Emergency Services determined he died from an apparent gunshot wound at the scene. A firearm was recovered at the location.

The house belonged to a woman who was present when deputies arrived; her boyfriend, David Daniel, 44, of Canton, was also there. Authorities said Reid was an acquaintance of both and that neither Reid nor Daniel lived at the residence. Daniel was taken into custody that night, publicly identified as the suspect and charged with murder, and held without bond at the Cherokee Adult Detention Center.

Are there details anyone in the area can share about what led to the shooting or about Reid’s movements that evening?
