On November 26, 2023, deputies found four people dead from gunshot wounds at a homeless encampment at the end of Tanner Lane near Autryville, North Carolina. The victims were discovered near two tents in a wooded area; three had multiple gunshot wounds and one had a single wound. Authorities identified 41-year-old Carrie Nichole Trampel of Autryville as one of the deceased, along with 44-year-old Daniel Jay Wiltshire and 43-year-old Amber Rae King.

The person who authorities say fired the shots was identified as 40-year-old Dwane Paul Miller of Marysville, Washington. Investigators reported ongoing domestic violence between Miller and Trampel that began in another state, and neighbors said they heard a verbal altercation before gunfire. Carrie Trampel was born December 5, 1981, in Buncombe County and is survived by her children Christian Greene, Isabelle Cabarrus, Michaela Key, and Addison Bova, her mother Barbara Wiltshire Greene, siblings Jeremy Greene and Kimberly Dahl, and several nieces and nephews; a memorial service was held December 3, 2023, at Crumpler-Honeycutt Funeral Home in Clinton.
