On the evening of May 18, 2026, gunfire at the Millwood Apartments in Lynchburg, Virginia, left 22-year-old Daysun Wilson of Halifax mortally wounded. Wilson, known affectionately by some as Day Day, was taken in a private vehicle to Lynchburg General Hospital around 8:30 p.m. but died shortly after arrival.

Investigators say the shooting followed an altercation that escalated when 20-year-old Ke John McGhee of Richmond allegedly produced a handgun and fired at Wilson. Lynchburg police have charged McGhee with second-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a murder, and describe him as about 5 feet 9 inches tall and 130 pounds; he remained at large as the investigation continued.

Anyone who was at Millwood Apartments that evening or who has information about McGhee’s whereabouts is asked to contact Lynchburg police.
