Davicia Annie Jean Lee, 29, was fatally shot on the night of October 26, 2024, at a Cook Out in the 1500 block of South Miami Boulevard in Durham, North Carolina. Deputies from the Durham County Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of gunfire shortly after 10:30 p.m. and found Lee deceased at the scene.

Investigators say the shooting followed a heated argument between Lee and multiple people. Court documents allege that Alexander Kenyon Carlton Jr., 23, and Calvin Jerade Spence Jr., 18, both of Durham, drew firearms and shot Lee as she was walking away from the altercation. Warrants state a third person, Jamari Treyvon McKnight, 18, of Wake Forest, was observed with a firearm during the confrontation and resisted arrest. Carlton Jr. and Spence Jr. were charged with first-degree murder, carrying a concealed gun, felony conspiracy, and going armed to the terror of the people; they were held without bond at the Durham County Detention Center. McKnight faces misdemeanor charges including carrying a concealed weapon, resisting a public officer, and going armed to the terror of the people.

Lee’s father, David Lee, described his profound grief and called his daughter the most special person in the world. The Durham County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate and is asking anyone with information to come forward.

Did anyone witness the argument or the shooting that night and can provide more details?
