Kevin Marshall III, a 20-year-old from Laurinburg, North Carolina, died from gunshot wounds on December 25, 2024. He was first treated at Scotland Memorial Hospital and later transferred to UNC Medical Center in Chapel Hill, where he succumbed to his injuries. His brother, 18-year-old Kavone Marshall, was also shot that evening, treated at Scotland Memorial Hospital and released.

Officers responded to reports of gunfire on Harrison Street at about 6:20 p.m. on Christmas Day. Kavone was found at the scene with a gunshot wound but reportedly would not provide details to police. Kevin arrived at the hospital and likewise declined to speak with investigators. A 16-year-old was arrested and charged with murder and is being held in juvenile detention. Authorities have offered a reward of up to $1,000 for tips leading to further arrests and say the investigation is ongoing.

Kevin’s obituary at Lawrence Jackson Funeral Home describes him as beloved by family and community; visitation was held January 9, 2025, with a service January 10 and burial at Patterson Cemetery in Laurel Hill. Does anyone have information about what happened on Harrison Street that night?
