David Shane Nance, 46, was found shot to death on private property near Nance Farm Road close to Mooresville on November 18, 2023. Deputies responding to a 911 call at about 11:00 a.m. located Nance at what appeared to be a makeshift gun range; he had multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy on November 20 found his cause of death to be two gunshot wounds to the chest.

The person who called 911, 63-year-old Herbert Mark Potts of Mooresville, identified himself as the shooter and told detectives the shooting followed an altercation with Nance. Investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Potts on a charge of felony first-degree murder; Potts was arrested without incident and is being held at the Iredell County Detention Center without bond. Nance was born August 29, 1977, graduated South Iredell High School, worked in maintenance at Davidson College, and is survived by his wife Traci Hannah Nance, father Freddie Nance, children Deanna Pettit and Ethan Adkins, grandson Lex Pettit, siblings Freda, Chris and Jamey Nance, and his companion D.O.G.
