Lamarion Baptist, 19, was killed in a shooting in Farmville, North Carolina, on the night of May 12, 2025. Police were called to a West Moore Street home around 10 p.m., where officers found two men wounded by gunfire; one was pronounced dead at the scene and later identified by the police chief as Baptist, who did not live at the house where the shooting occurred.

A second victim, 20-year-old Zymeir Williams, was taken to ECU Health Medical Center, treated, and later released. Detectives were working with the Pitt County District Attorney’s Office and following up on leads; as of the week after the shooting no arrests had been made and no suspects were publicly named. Family notices list Baptist’s birthdate as September 20, 2005, and record his death on May 12, 2025, with services held later that month at Salvation & Praise Full Gospel Church.

Does anyone in Farmville have information about who was at the West Moore Street home that night or saw anything about the shooting?
