On the evening of July 20, 2023, at about 7:44 p.m. Greensboro police responded to reports of gunfire in the 1900 block of Brice Street. Officers found two people with serious gunshot wounds who were taken to a local hospital by EMS; two more victims arrived at the hospital in private vehicles. One of those victims, 42-year-old Ronald David Green, died of his injuries and authorities classified the incident as a homicide.

The other victims were a 15-year-old boy who was treated and released, a 16-year-old boy who was hospitalized and later stabilized, and a 20-year-old man who remained in critical condition. Investigators said all involved knew one another and that the shooting was drug-related; police also announced they were not actively seeking suspects because there was no indication of an at-large perpetrator. The shooting was cited as part of a surge in city violence — Greensboro had recorded 42 homicides in 2023 by that date, exceeding the previous year’s total.
