Shortly after 1:00 a.m. on June 1, 2023, Durham police responded to a shooting in the 2500 block of South Roxboro Street and found two men with gunshot wounds. Both were taken to a local hospital with life-threatening injuries; 28-year-old Durham resident Turahn Roule Bey was later pronounced dead. The second victim’s identity and condition have not been publicly disclosed.

Authorities have not released details about what led to the shooting, and no arrests or suspects have been publicly identified. Bey’s family marked his birth as September 23, 1994, and his death on June 1, 2023, and invited the community to leave remembrances on a Tribute Wall. The Durham Police Department is asking anyone with information to contact Investigator J. Smith at (919) 560-4440, ext. 29365, or CrimeStoppers at (919) 683-1200, with anonymous tips eligible for rewards.

Does anyone in Durham have information about the shooting or knew Bey and can share memories that might help the investigation?
