Justin Alan Davis, a 29-year-old white man from Hendersonville, was found with a gunshot wound to the head and pronounced dead at the scene after multiple 911 calls reported gunfire on Woodcock Drive just after 8 p.m. on October 17, 2025. Officers converged on the area outside a home at 724 Woodcock Drive. Investigators from the Hendersonville Police Department were joined by the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation, and officials described the shooting as appearing to be an isolated incident with no ongoing threat to the public.

Police identified a juvenile as the suspect and on October 21 announced they had obtained arrest warrants while working with the suspect’s family to encourage a safe surrender; state law prevented release of the juvenile’s name or other identifying details. On October 24 authorities reported the juvenile had been taken into custody in the Upstate of South Carolina and charged with voluntary manslaughter and juvenile in possession of a firearm, with extradition proceedings underway as the investigation continued.

If anyone knew Justin, was in the Woodcock Drive area that evening, or has information about the events leading up to the shooting, please share what is known.
